This three hours horseback ride in Banff offers the greatest variety of scenery from the Cave & Basin area to a thick, lush forest.
As you follow the trail, you will get to gaze up at sky-piercing mountaintops, thick alpine forests, rolling hills and jagged rock formations. Your journey continues through the Cave and Basin – the birthplace of Banff National Park, where you will find bubbling sulphur waters and remarkable rock caverns.
