ABOUT THIS REGION  *  HORSE PACK TRIPS

Autumn horsepack trip through Banff National Park

These horsepack trips allow you to explore some of Banff National Park's most spectacular back country on horseback. For many, September is the most beauitful time to ride in the Rockies. Willow brush and larch trees change their colour into brilliant fall hues of red, amber and gold. During these multi-day trip you will have the opportunity to visit several different mountain camps, sleep under the stars and view a multitude of local wildlife, including deer, elk, bighorn sheep and eagles. Highlights along the way may include visits to Rainbow Ridge, 40 Mile Summit and Mystic Valley. Lots of opportunities for some stream fishing, photography and hiking.
