Established in 1914, Eastend is a jewel nestled in the historic Frenchman River Valley better known as the “Valley of Hidden Secrets”.
Eastend is located on one of Western Canada’s oldest trails – the Red Coat Trail (Highway #13). This was the original route taken by the North West Mounted Police on their historic march west in 1874. They set up a satellite police detachment near here, calling it East End, as it was the east end of their patrol from Fort Walsh (100 miles to the west).
Eastend is famously known as the home to Scotty the World's Largest T.rex. Scotty was discovered on August 16, 1991, by high school teacher, Robert Gebhardt. The T.rex Discovery Centre was built to contain the 65-million-year old fossilized remains of the first T. rex found in Saskatchewan. 
On the hilltops you can see the last vestiges of the western frontier – Teepee stones, gathering circles, homesteader shacks, and wagon wheels and crumbling log corrals. One can envision the massive herd of buffalo that once roamed oceans of waving grasses.
The Frenchman River winds along the north side of town. The river attracts an abundant variety of birds, water fowl, fish and pond life and is home to a wide variety of wildlife.
