Trail Activies
 
In the spirit of the first settlers, many choose to travel Alberta's Iron Horse Trail the old fashioned way...on horseback. What better way to become a part of nature then quietly trodding along the trail.

Perhaps sharing the experience in a covered wagon brings more of the "old ways" feeling to you, and enables you to travel in a group.

Many areas are horse friendly, staging areas and rest stops, check out the Trail Etiquette page to be sure that everyone is getting the best enjoyment.

Not sure what you saw? Check out our Trail Wildlife page to help you figure out which wild flower you saw, or type of spruce tree you took shade under.
