Duck Mountain Provincial Park’s trail network provides roughly 130 km of recreational opportunities for hiking, cycling, cross-country skiing and snowmobiling.
The park boasts nine pathways that provide more than 60 km of trails for cross-country skiers, hikers and cyclists. Among these trails are the Pelly Point Trail (4.4 km for advanced users) and the Woodland Nature Trail (2-km trail ideal for birdwatching), Green Lake Trail (13.2 km), Fire Tower Trail (5.6 km), Woodchuk Trail (.75 km) and the Fen Trail (.5 km). The Fen Trail travels to one of the rarest ecosystems in Saskatchewan, a calcareous fen. This place is home to a wide variety of wildlife, rate orchids, and 26 plant species that grow nowhere in the world but calcareous fens and if you look closely you'll find the unique and bizarre carnivores plants that set traps for unsuspecting insects.

These and other trails are groomed by the Kamsack Ski Club in the winter for classical and skate skiing and are perfect for skiers of all ages and skill levels.
In the summer, hikers and cyclists can travel along a portion of the Trans Canada Trail or take one of the park’s other self-guided, interpretive trails. The area also features a three-mile paved trail that connects the Recreation Hall to the Pickerel Point Campground, providing a beautiful, relaxing trip for people of all ages and abilities. For horse enthusiasts, guided horseback riding tours are available.
The park is also a popular destination spot for snowmobilers with almost 70 km of marked and well-maintained trails throughout the winter.
