Backpacking in Alberta
Alberta's foothills and Rocky Mountain country are classic riding country, with operators offering everything from hour-long trail rides to multi-day backcountry pack trips and full guest-ranch stays. The right choice depends on your riding experience, how rugged a trip you want, and whether you are after a day out or a week in the saddle.
