The tour runs for approximately 40 minutes, with optional time by the fire after your ride.
The private sleigh ride for two includes a warm blanket that is yours to keep and a s’mores kit to enjoy by the fire after your ride with a hot drink.
Please meet at Warner 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. There is plenty of free parking at the site.
We recommend that you get to the Warner Stables 20 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. A blanket is included, which is yours to keep after the ride.
The sleigh is a traditional wood construction style, with wooden bench seats. You do not sit on hay.
This ride is taken in a small 2 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.
There is a 24 hour cancellation policy, which allows you to change/cancel or refund your booking up to 24 hours outside your booked tour (up to 7 days for group bookings).
Gratuities are customary and very much appreciated.
