Silver Spur Trails Dude Ranch is one of BC's best kept secret, hidden in the Mabel Lake Valley in the North Okanagan surrounded by mountains and a pristine wilderness. The relaxing, tranquil environment is ideal for a horseback riding vacation to enjoy nature and the great outdoors. We love sharing the joys of simple ranch life with the people we meet. We love teaching our guest to ride a horse, shoot a rifle, throw a tomahawk, do some roping, shoot a bow and arrow and fire an authentic black powder rifle. All our packages can be customized for your personal adventure.

Whether you’re travelling alone, with a partner or a group of friends, our friendly guest ranch offers a special wilderness experience, great country food, good company, which lets you unwind and forget about the stresses of the real life. Check out our Ranch-Stay and Weekend Horseback Riding Adventure for a one of a kind western life style experience. Explore the impressive North Okanagan wilderness with us, learn about Natural Horsemanship while at the ranch and enjoy our large activity program. Our Horse Pack Trips take the novice to expert rider high up into the back country. A guided multi-day trip with over-night camping might be the ultimate wilderness vacation for you. For a wilderness adventure on foot join us for a guided ranch based Hiking Week.

If the class room atmosphere of a conventional English language school does not appeal to you we can offer you an alternative to learn English on a guest ranch. Our small classes and qualified ESL staff ensure an exciting experience.

The ranch hosts a big variety of activities which are offered depending on the time of year. Guided hikes through stunning, spectacular BC wilderness, fishing and canoeing on secluded mountain lakes, swimming in sparkling clear water, panning for gold, golfing and camping.
