Horseback Riding

Horseback riding is, of course, the main activity here at the ranch. The wide variety of rides and trails available in the area means we can cater to all levels of experience.

We offer complete flexibility in our riding programme so that you get to ride as much or as little as you like.  We have rides that vary from an hour to all day rides.  Once you’re here, just let us know your preferences and we’ll make it happen.

Our horses are experienced trail horses familiar with the local terrain and all of our rides are lead by our experienced wranglers and trail guides. We have some wonderful horses here at the ranch that you’ll love riding. Spend a little time at the barn and get to know the horse you’ll be riding. Our experienced Wranglers will choose the right horse for you and he’ll be yours for your entire vacation. Some of our guests like to ride a variety of horses during their vacation, and we can arrange that too.

Cheryl Smith - Head Wrangler

We are delighted that Cheryl has agreed to come back for another season. Originally from Quebec, Cheryl is fluent in both English and French. She has been around horses all her life and has worked with horses in Quebec and Saskatchewan. Before coming to Tod Mountain Ranch, Cheryl guided trail rides at several other guest ranches in BC. Cheryl is responsible for all aspects of barn management and for leading our guests safely along the trail. A certified riding coach, Cheryl is also available for riding instruction in our arena.

Cheryl took us on our trail rides and we had an intelligent leader and horses. We really enjoyed our day! Adam, London
