HORSEBACK RIDING.
Follow natural trails through the timber or enjoy the wide-open grasslands and mountain meadows of Cariboo cattle country. Feel the freedom that can only be experienced on horseback.

Whether you have ridden all your life or are a novice rider, we have the horse for you. Just like people, the horses have distinct personalities; and our wranglers will match you with a horse that suits you perfectly.

Our rides are also designed to meet every rider’s expectations, depending on experience. Riding adventures include everything from pony rides for young children to scenic one- and two-hour trail rides to more challenging all-day rides and pack trips.

In addition to the penetrating beauty, trail riders are immersed in the lore and mystery of the Cariboo.

There are also opportunities to become a real cowboy or cowgirl, riding alongside professional cowboys during roundup times. The horses love it and you’ll love it, too – chasing cows and calves that have their own ideas of when to stop, and where to go.

In order to provide a suitable mount for each rider we require information on the riding experience of each guest. For the comfort and safety of the horse and rider, weight limitations are in effect. Standard waivers of liability are required for all guests riding.
