Lonely Lighthouse

Atop a hill at the end of a popular village in Saskatchewan sits the province’s only lighthouse. At 11.5 m tall, it offers a view so good it draws visitors up all 153 wooden steps to see it. Built in 1988 as a community tourism project championed by the village’s first mayor, the fully functional lighthouse overlooks two nearby lakes, with sunrise and sunset views. Nearly four decades later, it remains the area’s most photographed landmark. — Sophia Lall
