| Sunset Horseback Holidays all begin from our Panther River Retreat, Alberta's "Great Rocky Mountain Escape". We are just a short drive from the Town of Sundre in west-central Alberta, west on the Red Deer River Road. Relax and enjoy an exhilarating horseback adventure in the spectacular Alberta Rocky Mountains. Ride through the panoramic scenery of the high mountain meadows and crystal clear waters. Each guest, whether 8 or 80, will be mounted on gentle, well broken horses, suitable for all ages and ability. All rides will be guided by friendly, knowledgeable guides.
Full Day Trail Riders depart from the Panther River Retreat at 10 am and explore the exquisite scenic foothill trails between the Burnt Timber Creek and the Red Deer River. Enjoy a box lunch or wiener roast along the trail to hold you over on your six hour journey. After returning to the Retreat, you will dine family-style at the Main Lodge on sumptuous home-cooked food.
For those who don't want to ride a horse, but still want to enjoy the scenery, you can ride in the wagon. Mountain Wagon Rides depart from Sunset's Panther River Retreat mid-morning. Enjoy the scenic Panther Valley from the covered wagon drawn by a team of Belgian draft horses. Enjoy a picnic lunch at the Dormer Mountain Tent Camp and return to the Retreat for a delectable home-cooked dinner. If you wish to travel in your RV, we have graveled pads with electrical hookups and water outlet.
There are various species of unique mountain flowers and of course, the spectacular scenery offered by Alberta's Rocky Mountains ... a photographer's dream! |
