INTRODUCTION
Welcome to the Kingsway Park Ecological Zone! The Ecological Zone,
part of the Wakamow Valley, has been designated as a protected area to preserve its unique plant and animal
communities. An 800 metre self-guided nature trail allows you to learn more about the area as you enjoy
a leisurely walk through a variety of habitats.
The Ecological Zone is a unique and diversified area of the Moose Jaw River valley.
It encompasses harsh, dry, south-facing slopes, a moist marsh area, a grassy meadow
and a woodland. It is home to 140 different plant species, used by over 100 bird species,
12 species of amphibians and reptiles and 20 animal species. It is also
home to a variety of insects and plants which are not found for miles around.
