Regardless of the vacation you booked at Anchor B we can accommodate
side trips of any nature. Enjoy a day trip to Waterton Lakes National
Park for hikes such as the world-famous Crypt Lake Trail, take time out
for a bit of flyfishing or a trail ride, or just enjoy a nature photography
walk. Your days at the ranch can be customized to suit your individual
tastes.
The Anchor B Ranch is located in the rolling foothills of southwestern
Alberta, directly below the front range of the rockies. This unique geographical
region offers exceptional views of the mountains and sweeping hills leading
into their rock faces. Enjoy these panoramic vistas by horseback and hiking
with our experienced Anchor B Ranch staff. This is ranching country and
we offer horse back riding around the ranch and local country side as
well as excursions to the mountains. Guided hiking is also available for
excursions to the Crowsnest Pass area. There are several day hikes to
the mountains that offer exceptional views.
We have well-trained saddle horses to match guests at every level
of riding experience from beginner to seasoned rider. We supply top quality
western saddles and tack for each guest. During orientation on your first
day with us we will match you with a horse to fit your level of riding
experience. A mix of trail rides and ranch work on horseback (moving,
sorting and doctoring cattle, and checking fence) will be available on
a daily basis. On specified weeks cattle drives, brandings and attendance
at the local professional rodeo are also available. The Anchor B is close
to some of the best hiking locations in the Canadian Rockies. The Crypt
Lake Trail in Waterton National Park is listed as one of the top 10 hikes
in North America. From easy walks to mountain tops, we have what you’re
looking for. In addition to our main activities we offer bird watching,
photo safaris, canoeing and kayaking adventures, rock climbing, various
adventure-based learning programs including wilderness survival and skills
training. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, we will
custom-design to suit your individual needs. Activities may be booked
from June to September to fit your itinerary.
