Two rivers. Two different rides. And... one thing in common. Know what it is? They both close mid-October! πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

The Spray River ride takes you across a crystal-clear river with Bow Falls in sight. The Bow River ride brings you along thick marshes where elk, deer, and coyotes hang out just off the trail.

Both are one hour. Both are perfect for first-timers. And both are gone once mid-October hits, and we are done for the year. 🧑

You've got a few weeks left to cross a river on horseback in the Canadian Rockies. Don't overthink this one: visit now horseback.com/?utm_source=social-fb&utm_medium=organic

This is Banff from a perspective most people never get to see, and spots are almost gone! 🐴

Ride two-thirds up Sulphur Mountain on one of Banff's most iconic trails!

This horseback adventure takes you through towering Rocky Mountain scenery, past a famous landmark hotel, across the Spray River, and through terrain where elk and coyotes roam.

πŸ“ Departs at 12:30 pm | Ages 8+

The leaves are about to change! 🍁🐴

And there is genuinely nothing like riding through the Canadian Rockies when the larches go gold, and the whole valley shifts into something that looks like it was painted. It happens every year. It doesn't last long. And the people who book early are the ones who get to see it.

Here's the thing folks don't talk about enough: the photos you come home with from this ride are absolutely unreal. Every turn is a new frame. Every view is the kind of thing people stop scrolling for. Your camera roll is going to look completely different after this, and your Instagram is going to thank you.

The Sulphur Mountain Ride is four hours of one of the most iconic journeys in Banff National Park. June through mid-September. Ages 8 and up.

Howdy y'all! Tell us...how does this idea tickle your ears? A wagon ride along the Bow River. Lassoing, horseshoes, and a steak dinner with all the fixin's in the middle of the Canadian Rockies. 🀠 πŸŒ„

The Wagon Ride with BBQ Cookout is three hours of pure western Banff magic and honestly one of the most uniquely Canadian experiences you can have. All ages welcome. Lunch and dinner departures daily. And yes, it runs rain or shine because real cowboys don't cancel.

This is the one your whole group is going to be talking about on the drive home: horseback.com/tours/wagon-ride-bbq-cookout/?utm_source=social-fb&utm_medium=organic

There is something about a child and a horse that is completely its own kind of magic. No words needed. No explanation. Just a memory being made that will live in your child forever. 🐴 ❀️

This is what Banff Trail Riders is really about. The rides are incredible. The Canadian Rockies are breathtaking. But these moments right here? These are the ones that stick.

AWWW, so handsome!! πŸ₯Ή

We're not gonna lie, this has been our exact reaction every single time we spot one of our gentle giants. And after all these years? Yeah, we still melt every time. πŸŽπŸ’™

Here's the thing: we've been doing this since 1962, and we haven't changed one iota. Same love for our horses. Same care for this land. Same mission to bring folks into the most special corners of Banff the way it was meant to be experienced, with stewardship, responsibility, and a whole lot of heart.

What's the little fella gettin' a glimpse at over yonder? πŸ‘€

Why, it's only the best BBQ cookout he has ever laid his eyes on! 🀠

Here's the deal: hop aboard a relaxing wagon ride along the Bow River, keeping an eye out for ground squirrels, porcupines, and beavers along the way. Then roll up to our 3 Mile Cabin for a real-deal western cookout. You'll get to indulge in our BBQ steak, roasted baby potatoes, cowboy baked beans, coleslaw, and dessert squares to finish it all off. πŸ₯©
