New offer for the advanced riders out there!
Our Half Day Ride – Tilson Lake is the perfect choice for people with riding experience who want to explore Riding Mountain National Park. This ride takes you on a real adventure with approximately 3.5 hours of riding. We start at Deep Lake Entrance and follow Tilson Lake West Trail to the back country campsite. Time to take a break and use the chance to cool off the horses’ legs in Tilson Lake before heading back.
Adventure to Tilson Lake
This trail is rather challenging: It includes steep uphill and downhill sections over rocky terrain, muddy/wet spots to cross, and short stretches of bushwhacking (branches! duck your head 😉 ). So, it is an adventure for sure – awarded with great views and a really interesting ride.
