What to do and see in Okanagan Valley, Okanagan Valley: The Best Horseback Riding Tours

March 28, 2022 Dorsey Hagwood

The Okanagan Valley, in the interior of British Columbia, is a popular Canadian vacation destination known for skiing in the winter and watersports in the summer. The area's quaint towns and lush vineyards are connected by a network of clear blue lakes and rivers and surrounded by rolling, sun-dappled hills. Head to Kelowna for one of several wine festivals or to Penticton for the sugary summer Peach Festival. To the south is Osoyoos, home to an arid desert filled with rare plants and animals.

My daughter has taken up horse riding in the last couple of months and knew I loved to ride but hadn't I awhile. She booked a trail ride as a belated Father's Day gift for me. Had a great time and Megan is a great host. Easy to find and lots to see, fantastic view of woods lake, Oyama and the valley. Enjoy, we did!

We booked a ride for a group of 5 to celebrate a birthday and the majority of our group hadn't ridden in decades. We were all made to feel extremely safe and comfortable, and they did an exceptional job matching riders with their beautiful horses! Highly recommend - thank you for your hospitality Crystal & Jeff!

As everyone else has been saying, Sherry and Dave are special people and offer an amazing experience. The ride itself was first rate, and it felt like we were experience a live action western movie as we rode through the sagebrush foothills above the lake. My favorite part of the ride happened before it even started when Sherry was introducing us to the horses and sharing each horse's story of how it was rescued. It made the time we spent with our horse that much more meaningful. Regardless of where each one came from, it is obvious that they are now well cared for and living their best lives. Thank you Sherry and Dave for everything you are doing!

Great Ride! I phoned in advance and spoke to peter about what i was looking for and knew that he would be the best person to trust in putting my 3 year old on his horses. (They provided her and I with a staff member to lead the horse, while letting her feel like she was in control the whole time)The comments about him being stern and a perfectionist are entirely true, and that is why i brought my child here to ride. The staff were very hands on and informative with every step of the ride. This was not only a " pony ride" for kids but a riding lesson before we began, they took the time to see that everyone was comfortable on the horses before we ventured up the mountain paths. It was a very relaxed environment and we were all comfortable. The views from the property was beautiful as we weaved through the mountain side. If you are looking to walk in to a stables that is pristine condition and they throw you on a horse to follow them around then look elsewhere.

Tranquille Farms was the first stop on a Visitor Centre Familiarization Tour of Lake Country. Lorraine, the owner, is a very passionate person. You can truly see how much she loves and cares for her horses. She had introduced us to the few horses out and showed us a new horse she had just rescued. The farm uses homeopathic methods to care for the horses. Also the farm offers trail rides, horseback riding lessons and horse training.
