A Saskatchewan outfit running guided paddleboard outings, overnight paddle trips, Nordic sauna sessions and wellness retreats near Saskatoon. Reviewers praise the thoughtful, all-inclusive organization.
Back2Nature Wellness & Adventures mixes paddling with wellness. Reviewers describe guided paddleboard events including night glow paddles, overnight paddle trips, and a wood sauna at Blackstrap where guests do hot and cold cycles with a plunge in the lake or an outdoor cold shower. Some retreats are based at Camp Wolf Willow, with tents overlooking the river valley.
Organization is what people remember. Guests on the overnight paddle say meals, tent, sleeping bag, mattress pad, headlamp and camp chair were all provided. Sauna visitors mention robes, hats, water, a campfire with s'mores and optional snack boxes, plus add-ons like massages and card readings. The owner-guide gets warm praise for her safety briefings and for helping complete beginners onto a board.
It suits people who want time outdoors without the planning and gear, including groups of friends booking private sauna nights and first-time paddlers building confidence. Winter sauna sessions run in well below freezing temperatures, which regulars count as part of the appeal.
There is almost nothing negative in the reviews. Wind can pick up on the water, so expect conditions to change on the paddle back. Bookings are made online in advance.
