About horseback riding in Kootenays
The Kootenays are a mountainous region in southeastern BC, made up of long valleys framed by the Rockies to the east and the Selkirks to the west. Cranbrook is the area's main equestrian hub, followed by Creston, Wardner and several East Kootenay communities, for a total of 17 listings catalogued in our directory. Local riding culture leans on ranching, breeding and mountain trail use — a direct inheritance from the province's southeastern valley ranches. The offering includes boarding, lessons, western training and trail riding, often within wide-open natural settings. Backcountry riding peaks in summer, once the higher trails are again accessible.
