THE SAHARA OF SASKATCHEWAN (I can't believe this is in Canada)

- This is one of the last places on Earth that I would ever expect to find SAND DUNES. Even most Canadians have never been to Saskatchewan, let alone international tourists. If you are looking for a unique experience in the prairies, look no further than the Great Sand Hills in south western Saskatchewan. I had heard of this place before coming here, but I did think it was THIS BIG. If you are doing a Canadian roadtrip and are going through SK, make sure you plan a stop at this wonderful natural wonder. I will link some articles down below that I found helpful to find this place:

SafetyWing (best for younger travelers + digital nomads): www.safetywing.com/a/alinamcleod
I use both of these companies depending on the destination and requirements of entry. If you are going to be abroad for a long time and/or don't need as much coverage, I would recommend SafetyWing. BUT you cannot purchase SafetyWing WHILE in Canada or USA. You can only purchase once already abroad. Hey Mondo is more expensive but offers a higher level of coverage including plans that have trip cancellation/interruption insurance. Hey Mondo would be the better insurance to use if you need travel medical insurance when applying for a visa. Both companies cover covid.

I'm watching this on Father's Day while drinking a Dad's Root beer. Happy Father's Day, everybody.
Talk about a walk down memory lane, nostalgia overload. I walked on that exact same sand dune back in the mid 90s and have never been back. 💔
I love Saskatchewan. I was born on the west coast and lived all over Canada but my Heart and soul belongs to Saskatchewan
I moved here 2010 💖💖
Saskatchewan is seriously underrated. Come here if you want an inner peace for your soul and if you are tried from the hustle and bustle of big cities.
My friends and I we all suggest leaving Canada ASAP while you can before the next lockdown, or before police charge you with offending someone on your social media. Canada has gone down the crapper😢. Latin America is more free, heck most of the world is more free.
How many native Americans were secretly killed and buried in unmarked graves in Saskatchewan? 💀
@@nomadclient4047 everyone is free to go wherever they want to.
@@nomadclient4047 this is completely false. That just sounds like someone being dramatic
@@WestCoastDon448 I wish it was overly dramatic but the lockdowns, repression, and abuse of anyone who asks questions is real. Also very real is government shut down go fund me accounts for opposition to get lawyers. But law guarantees representation. But it's not followed.. Canada is new USSR!😡
What really comes through in your SK videos here is the sky, they call it the land of living skies.
Thank you Alina and Dad for sharing. I always enjoy your videos!
I am from Fort Chipewyan, AB, located on the east end of Lake Athabasca (but live in Edmonton). The biggest sand dune in Sask is located on the south shore of lake Athabasca also the biggest lake in Sask & AB. The dune is huge many many sq km of sand. I seen it, we went by boat from Ft Chipewyan and WOW...
Yes, I've heard it's pretty epic
You took the words out of my mouth !
The east end of Lake Athabasca is in Saskatchewan. I believe you wanted to say Fort Chip is located on the west side of Lake Athabasca.
I've been to Drumheller for a little while and I have to admit this is my favorite part of Canada. I'm born in a small farm and those Prairie make me feel better and happy. I just love the prairie and the nature of west Canada.
Each episode of your travels brings a novel look about our world. A Sahara desert inside Canada ?. A discovery to me. If I may offer respectfully my personal, observation. I commend you for your gentle, respectful interaction with your parents. A very refreshing example to all of us. It seems we have lost some of it these days.
Hi Alina! 😄🙏👋🌟 I hope your having a marvelous day! This is really a beautiful magnificent super excellent video! 😁👍❤️👏🇨🇦📹🥇💯🏆💫✨🌟 The Great Sandhills of Saskatchewan look really amazing! Even the view and the drone shots of the landscape is so beautiful! Also the food at the restaurant looks really delicious! I would definitely like to visit the Great Sandhills of Saskatchewan one day. It’s really a marvelous place! Thank you so much Alina to share with us this excellent fantastic video. You are the best and greatest world traveler adventurer in the world! 😃👍👏✈️🌎📹🧳🗺🥇💯🏆✨🌟 I wish you Alina a wonderful beautiful marvelous blessed day. Take care and be safe Alina. 😊🙏❤️👋🇨🇦👍✨🌟
Another spectacular performance by the lovable Alina Mcleod. I have never been to Saskatchewan but have had an interest in it. Very entertaining production. Seems like a relaxed part of the world. Keep up the good work.
Indian food, in a small village..Love it..😍
That's canada. Our population is essentially 25% native, 25% European, 25% Asian, 25% indo/middle eastern.
Swift Current is my birth place 😍. Saskatchewan is so chill and peaceful 😌
Your dad is hilarious lmao! "A sandbox for little kids!" But the sand dunes definitely did look cool even if they're not really comparable to the vast desert of Sahara. So excited to see footage from your visit in Drumheller as, me being the huge dino nerd I am, have read that it's the one place to go in Canada for dinosaur enthusiasts like myself so it's gonna be an awesome video to look forward to! 🦖🦕😍
Thanks! It is definitely worth checking out!
Moved to Calgary early this year from Mississauga. I've been actually interested in visiting the Athabasca Sand Dunes Provincial Park in Saskatchewan! Alberta has some sand dunes also but this seems to be the biggest area in Canada like this. Even on Google maps you can see it right away.
Wonderful to see the Sandhills, lovely place! Love watching your travels in Canada 🇨🇦
I got a great laugh when you described your dad's reaction to the SK Sahara. A wonderful place to explore for sure!
The 570 into Drumheller from Oyen is one of my favourite drives. So peaceful and quiet.
Wow ! Great presentation ! Miso thumb's up ! Great photo shots ! My local city ! Great ambassador ! I'm smiling ,appreciate !
Beautiful video, your dad rocks, and your relationship is great. Keep it up, and give him three grandchildren now.
I appreciate you and your Dad showing us areas of Saskatchewan! Was always curious about the place.
Dads and daughters, such a special relationship, nothing like it.
Wonderful video. I enjoyed it very much. Thank you and keep them coming!
That road from Dorothy, {the old elevator| to Drum is always lovely, because of the emptiness.. We drive that route when we travel from Saskatoon to Calgary every time.
Thx for showing me that! I had no idea that was there! Great footage!
Really enjoying your road trip, it's so beautiful around the dune area. 😍 Looking forward to Drumheller, it's been a few years since we visited. Have a wonderful day you two! 👍
Thanks Alina for taking me to places I’ve never stopped at - very enjoyable!
Loved the scenery in this video! And I was delighted you both stopped in Leader. I love that little town.
Love the Great Sas! Very interesting tour!# Shout out for your Dad, great bonding too Alina!#
Great that you r rep'n SK!!!
Very nice and relaxing video! Never thought of traveling that direction by car but now I started considering that lol 😃
Was making the trek across the plains about the same time as you! But we took Hwy 9 Saskatoon to Calgary.
My wife and I love your videos. I'm from Sask with Ukranian/Norwegian heritage, love to travel, and even have some connection to Kinistino through my dad. Thanks for all your videos. I'll continue to keep watching and smiling at the familiar scenes!
Thank you both very much!
Hi Alina, A very beautiful showing of Saskatchewan. Thank you!

Loving your Canada series
It was a pleasure to meet your dad.
Wow amazing i was born in drumheller. Cant wait for next video
What a beautiful slice of the Sahara in Saskatchewan! Love the heavenly drone shots here- one of the most captivating ones I've seen of a desert landscape 👌🏼💯
Aw thank you 😁
Hey Alina McLeod sensational el tour turistico en esas partes remotas nice panoramica de esos Campos verdes, el Sahara, recorrido en el highway, buen conductor, bonita panoramica del atardecer y te miras bonita con tus earrings
Went here!!! Only got to stay a while but it was surreal to see as someone who hasn’t travelled out of the country 🎉
I have enjoyed all your videos and I particularly enjoy your choice of music. I also grew up in small town Saskatchewan.
Thank you very much!
Hello Alina and Gordon! I very much enjoyed your scenic car drive through southwestern Saskatchewan into southeastern Alberta! This brings back some good memories!
I’m very glad!
Canada is an amazing place, hope I make it there one day. Love the vast open countryside, really pretty 💜💜💜
Nice, thanks for sharing your road trip, but I am surprised you two didn't check out cypress hills.
Happy to See A Sikh Panjabi guy in Indian Restaurant
Wow! A desert in Canada! Just amazing to watch this awesome video with your lovely dad through these magnificient Canadian roads and then...a desert in the middle of a stunning environment. It sounds strange but it is true. And these small towns are truly nice and peaceful. Anyway your country is a fairytale, worth living and visiting. Thank you Alina for this great video.
My pleasure! Definitely so much to see :)
Hi Alina,
great nature and great cut to the beat of the music!
What an overwhelming positive rating of your dad regarding the Indian food.
🙂
We have a phrase here: “No complaints is positive said enoug.”
🙂
Best Regards, Ralf
Beautiful desert in Canada 🇨🇦🥰👍 I hope you had a lovely day
The scenery along the Canadian highways is beautiful!
Enjoyed the scenery ! very beautiful even the sand hills ; Tell your dad for me a little easier to get to than the Sahara May make up for the size
Ahh, that seems like a great destination for tranquility and relaxed vibes =D take me there already!
After visiting our daughter in Vancouver, the best way to describe getting back to the wide open sky's of Saskatchewan, is that feeling you get when you loosen your belt after thanksgiving supper.
Thanks for sharing!
Lovely video Alina
Thanks Alex!
The palace guard approves of this Saskatchewan tour!😄✌️❤️🇬🇧
Drumheller is too good..Amazing shots from drone..Astonished to see Indian restaurant ..Punjabi dishes are always awesome..wonderful job Alina..
good old saskatchewan.
best place to live in canada! dont forget to see northern sask.
drumheller is a cool little town! thanks alina for showing our great western canada to the world!
so many people dont even know we exist!
god bless you!
happy travels 👍
You so gorgeous and thanks again for the lovely
It's cool to see the Great Prairee!#
Thank you so much.
Very interesting
Im a bit curious to see the sand box if I get a chance to visit Swift Current in the future… Thanks for sharing. New subscriber here from PA.
Stay safe to both of you, thank you!#
You're Sask video's are my favourite. I'm from Toronto and have also seen much of the world but Saskatchewan has a special spot in my heart.
Thank you very much!
Great video Alina! Man there are some really flat plains there. Maybe you can tell me but I recall on an excursion into Part of the Yukon where we saw some Sandhills at some place but I don't recall exactly where they were at. Anyway thanks for the video and really looking forward to your next one.
Ooo visiting the Yukon would be epic
@@AlinaMcleod It was only for a day but it was a lot of fun! Wish we would have had more time.
When we were escaping JUNUARY in Vancouver, we headed to Little Manitou Beach in Saskatchewan. Wonderful place! But we didn't really escape Junuary because there were torrential downpours in Saskatchewan the whole four days we were there. Still loved it.
I live in the West Kootenay of BC, in the Selkirk Mountains , most people only think of BC with the Rockies, There ate 4 mountain ranges west from the Rockies before you get to the Okanaogan and Kelowna. Anyway we ave been across Canada 8 times and of all our trips I much prefer southern Saskatchewan and southern Alberta. Summer in the prairies of Canada is just wonderful. I have mountains and trees all the rest of the year ,but the open skies and fields of grain is just stunning. Our daughter and finance are moving to Moose Jaw Sask in May and we will be visiting them as many times as we can. Also we have been to the Tyrell Dinosaur museum in Drumheller many times ,it is always new and fun to see the exhibits.
It is cool to see these places...........been to Calgary but not much else out west
*GOD BLESS MY FAVOURITE TRAVEL TH-camR AND HER DAD!*
Always wondered about those sand dunes! They're a bit too far north of 1 when I drove from Regina - Calgary, I recall. Since I lived on the east side of the province, I never really ventured into the west too much.
Alina you with your dad that's a cool trip
Considering all the exotic places you travel to I oddly enjoy your Sask and Alberta ones the best.
Haha me too. Thank you
I to have visited Egypt and the Sahara Desert and was thinking the same as your dad 🤣 saying that I thought it look ed well worth a visit so thanks Alina ❤ 😘
The Sahara Desert in Saskatchewan is very nice!🌸🌸❤️❤️
👍👍👍Best Dad you have Very LUCKY 🤣🤣🤣🌺🌸🌼🙏🙏🙏
I love going to the Sandhills. And also I'm not sure if it was open at the time when you went to Leader Saskatchewan, but should of went to the 10-4 food place. Good food and best ice cream around Saskatchewan
Hello my lovely thank you always a pleasure
Whaaat? Those opening shots looked like Africa or something! 🐘
haha I know right
Great video as always. please come to Iran with your dad and visit a nice desert called Maranjab.
visited Drumheller once many yrs ago, nice museum
Thank you Alina
Love old folk! They're true
How much longer are we going to be on Sask-watch for, Alina? The vast, flat endless plains, your dad's laconic comments, and your unwavering charm are all very well...but we need to see your goggle eyed wonder at exotic locations!
I got some Alberta content coming up for a couple more weeks and then will be leaving Canada.
Went to the dinosaur museum in Alb., best part was hanging outside afterwards, sand side, badlands side! I love sand, they used so much to frack with, too much!
Hi Alina, I was in Saskatchewan in 1995. The people were so friendly and kind there! Many greetings to the nuns in Regina, who were with us at the bus station on our way to Toronto!
Good video greetings from Mexico
Время с семьей-самое ценное! Молодец, что проводишь его со своим отцом
Very peaceful.. love from India
Hello Alina, thanks for sharing the beautiful sights in Saskatchewan. Man ,that's a lot of territory. Now, are you gonna show us a sighting of Sasquatch? 😂
i would love to see you do a video of the northern part of the province. P.A., the Battlefords, Waskesiu, etc.
I went to PA a couple years ago and shot a video when it was -40 loo
