Riding The Mountains

A perfect way to be close to the horses and the great outdoors. Plus, having access to use the ranch facilities and the options to choose any activity you are interested in. How awesome is that?
September is one of the best month to ride in the mountains. Silver Spur Trials amazing mountain horses will take you safe up the trails and make it a trip to be remembered.

One of BC's best kept secret, hidden in the Mabel Lake Valley surrounded by mountains and a pristine wilderness, check us out!

Working at the ranch

Simple living
Planning for winter
Looking after guests and riding the mountains is only a part of life at Silver Spur Trails Wilderness Guest Ranch. The cooler nights in September remind us to get the firewood ready for winter.
The ranch uses gravity fed water for  irrigation.With no rain for weeks the irrigation needs some maintenance. Another job for Yrene to look into.
Come and book a "Work and Play" package with us, you won't regret it.

Kids birthday party



Wild West Birthday Party at Silver Spur Trails!  The kids didn't just learn about horses and got to ride, there was much more offered at the ranch. A lesson in archery with a long bow and target shooting were on the program and everybody enjoyed it lots.
The kids also met Abs, the young calf which they helped bottle feed at lunch time.

The birthday party was wound up with a campfire. Everyone cooked their own hot dog on a stick and roasted marshmallows, what a lot of fun!

Silver Spur Trails is hosting kids birthday parties with a difference. Please contact us for more info and visit our webiste http://www.silverspurtrails.ca

Back to the old times

Silver Spur Trails Wilderness Ranch is getting back to the origin of shooting. Kevin spent an afternoon with the Monashee Mountain Men in Salmon Arm on the weekend learning from the professionals and shooting his 50 cal. black powder gun. Black powder, smoke, just like in the Western movies.
You too have the chance to have the experience the old times during a horseback riding vacation at Silver Spur Trails Wilderness Ranch. For more information please visit our Website or call the ranch at 250-547-9869
