Trail Rides
Will you choose a slow and easy ride? Or perhaps you are a bit more adventurous and would like to try a canter through mountain trails with the breeze against your face. The Red Barn Ranch is pleased to offer tailor-made horseback trips to its guests.Our gentle, sure-footed horses will carry you in comfortable Western saddles on hourly, half- or full-day rides along a variety of beautiful trails.
Perhaps you would like to ride side-by-side on the historic Kettle Valley trail...or maybe you would prefer a climb to a beautiful lake view. Picnic spots abound, beside peaceful mountain-top lakes, or overlooking the city of Summerland - and a homestyle lunch will be prepared just for you. Linger quietly over lunch, and perhaps you will see graceful deer grazing amongst the trees, or a shy black bear as he hunts for berries in summer.

Contact us for further information on this program. This is a lovely way to either get started, or get “back into” horses without the total commitment of purchasing a horse, paying full board, plus all up-keep expenses.Rate: $175 per month.

Spirit Wrangler’s Vision Statement
To provide a fun and safe learning environment for young horse lovers who will also learn about the saving love of God through the gift of his son Jesus Christ.
Our camps run for three days. We structure our camps based on both age and riding ability. The younger children (ages 8-10 approximately) typically require more one-on-one instruction and care. These DAY CAMPS run from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. The older children (ages 11 and up approximately) tend to be able to ride more independently. These OVER NIGHT CAMPS run from 10:00 Tuesday morning till 6:00 pm Thursday.

Registration Forms
Volunteers Wanted
Red Barn Ranch is always looking for volunteers for our Kids Christian Camps. The role of a volunteer is to guide and assist children in their horse skills ie, grooming, saddling, riding, and chores (ie feeding, cooking, kitchen duties). Younger children require more one-on-one attention, where as older children ride more independently. Riding is not “usually” a component for the volunteer, so volunteers should be aware of this when applying.Desirable characteristics we look for are :
- Maturity
- Patience
- Horse experience
- Willingness to help others
- Horse experience is not essential as there are also many other jobs, ie, kitchen duties, etc.
If you are interested in helping out, please contact us for further information.
