Private Family Sleigh Ride

The tour runs for approximately 40 minutes, with optional time by the fire after your ride (weather permitting).

The private family sleigh ride for up to four people includes two warm blanket that are yours to keep, a s’more kit and the option to warm up by the fire after your ride with a hot drink.

Please meet at Banff Trail Riders Stables, the big red stables located at the end of Sundance Road in Banff. When you arrive, please follow the sleigh ride signs to check in for your ride at the office in the west barn. The stables are located approximately a five minute drive or a 20 minute walk from downtown Banff, and there is plenty of free parking at the site.

We recommend that you get to the Banff Trail Riders Stables 15 minutes prior to your scheduled departure time.

The circuit is at the foothills of the Canadian Rockies, so you will get great views of Banff’s surrounding mountains including Sulphur Mountain and Mount Norquay. If you are lucky you may even spot some local wildlife including deer or elk.

The sleigh is “open top” so we recommend that everyone dresses warm with multiple layers, mitts, hats, a thick winter jacket and boots. Two blankets are included, which are yours to keep after the ride.

This ride is taken in a four seat cutter sleigh pulled by one horse – a true one-horse open sleigh! The horses are a variety of heavy horse breeds, including Percheron horses.
