Amazing ride! We took a 2 hr sunset ride with Royce. We got to do a lot more on this trail ride than other ones we've done, like taking the horses through water and trotting. ( Even cantering once but I wasn't supposed to ???? ) I can't say enough good things about this ride! We will for sure be back!

Ideally located in the spectacular natural beauty of Kananaskis Valley, Boundary Ranch is the perfect setting to discover the authentic cowboy experience and Western hospitality. Folks are invited to spend time at our Western Entertainment Centre and participate in horseback riding and outfitting trips, barbeques, horse-drawn wagon rides, and any number of the other activities that we offer for cowpokes of all ages. Happy Trails!
The sleigh ride was awesome, the views were stunning and the guide provided a great learning experience. All in all it was brilliant.

Discover a side of Banff you can only see on horseback. Banff Trail Riders (previously Holiday on Horseback) take you to places most travellers never experience. We offer hourly rides, backcountry lodge pack trips, sleigh rides and more. Get an authentic Old West adventure, even if you have never been on a horse before. We'll match you with a horse, guide and trip that just right for your level of riding experience.
After being to most of the backcountry /ski-in lodges in the Banff area, we decided to try Sundance Lodge. We were able to book the entire place for our own group of 20 friends - a feat very difficult to match at the better known ski-in lodges. It's a great 1-night getaway, since there isn't much in the way of XC trails extending from the lodge. Ski in one day (uphill, on a beautiful trail by the river, through the woods), cozy up by the wood stove, enjoy the good and ample food, have a comfortable sleepover (hot showers, indoor plumbing, great beds with linens provided) and then ski out downhill the next day. The staff were friendly and efficient, eager to help us with anything we needed (there is limited beer & wine for purchase at the lodge) and didn't mind when we stayed up very, very late. Highly recommended to go with a group or book on your own!
