About
Preserving Our Living History
The Mission of Riverlands Heritage Preservation Region Inc. is to preserve and promote the natural and cultural history along the west bank of the North Saskatchewan River. From Petrofka Bridge north to Wyngard Ferry, we invite you to explore a landscape rich with historic spots, breathtaking scenery, and vibrant wildlife.
RHPRI acknowledges that our tour route is located within Treaty 6 Territory, the traditional homelands of the Cree, Nakoda, Saulteaux, and Metis People. We honor the history and enduring presence of the Indigenous peoples who have lived here since time immemorial.
Founded as a non-profit in 2008, our work began years earlier through the dedication of local volunteers. We are a community-driven organization committed to ensuring this heritage is protected for future generations.

From History to Conservation
Our group is dedicated to maintaining the tour route and sharing the unique features of our region. In partnership with Saskatchewan Parks Culture and Sport, we have been active supporters of the former Petrofka Recreation Site. Most recently, we collaborated with Sask Power to install three eagle nesting poles in the region—a project that aids the environment and supports the return of these majestic birds to our skies.

The Riverlands Heritage Region is a volunteer-driven initiative. Whether you have family stories to share, historical records to contribute, or time to help maintain our sites, we welcome your involvement in preserving our local history.
