A Note to Our International Guests
Unleash your inner cowboy/cowgirl in the “heartland” of the majestic Canadian Rockies! The Province of Alberta (the size of Texas) in Canada is known as one of the most scenic places in the world. Indeed, several media outlets (The New York Times, National Geographic Explorer, USA Today and Lonely Planet) all rated “Canada” as the number one travel choice destination. What is the best way to see our incredible Rockies especially with a limited schedule? There are several options: Trail rides in Alberta are varied; there are guest ranch vacations, horseback riding packages, cattle ranches and other horse riding products. What the Trail Riders offers, is a very unique trail ride in Alberta; in fact the most unique of any other kind of trail riding holiday. Back country travel in our Rocky Mountains is restricted to hiking or horseback riding; there is simply no other way to see this majestic country. Your options are either backpacking (with all the necessary gear, expertise and physical endurance), hiking with a group such as Skyline Hikers of the Canadian Rockies (our sister organization) or come with us on a horseback riding trip that is like no other. We have licensed professional interpretative guides; our meals are hot and plentiful and the camp, although rustic (this is wilderness camping) has all the amenities for a great horse riding vacation. Come and join us for, “the ride of your life”
A suggested itinerary? Enjoy the world famous Calgary Stampede, join us on a riding trip in Banff National Park, then hop on the Rockymountaineer Train to Vancouver and fly home from there, or jump on a cruise to Alaska!
