Explore Alberta's Rockies and discover a rich heritage in the natural, unspoiled beauty of Alberta's national parks. A trail ride is the perfect way to rediscover the history, art and culture created by the province's past inhabitants. Explore the landscape that has been home to First Nations people for thousands of years, wander the prairies that nourished the first pioneers, gaze out over the rolling foothills where cowboys stood, and follow trails blazed by the first mountain men.
Visitors can choose short rides or adventures that last several days, staying overnight in teepees, campgrounds, cabins or backcountry lodges. Trail rides and pack trips are an ideal way to explore the area and all excursions include warm hospitality and knowledgeable guides.
QUALITY FAMILY TIME
Families will discover that trail riding is an activity that can be enjoyed by all members, regardless of age or whether they have ridden a horse before. Trail rides are led by expert guides that educate riders about the surrounding area and give plenty of opportunities for family members to learn and interact together, creating a fun, safe and memorable experience that is more than just a horseback ride.
Ride the Wind Ranch near Rocky Mountain House is an ideal family getaway, especially for young family members who dream of the Old West. Cowgirls and cowboys can spend their day galloping through the tall grass, herding Texas longhorn cattle and learning rope tricks. At the end of the day everyone can enjoy authentic, homemade cowboy grub, then trade ghost stories and roast marshmallows around the campfire before settling into their cozy cabins.
