Active Adventure
Tod Mountain Ranch is a small guest ranch that accommodates a maximum of 16 guests in 8 cabins.
Horseback riding is the main activity here at the ranch. The wide variety of rides and trails available in the area means we can cater to all levels of experience. Our horses are well trained and familiar in trail riding in the local terrain and all rides are lead by experienced wranglers and trail guides. We have some wonderful horses here at the ranch that you’ll fall in love with. Guests are welcome to spend time at the barn and get to know the horses they’ll be riding.The mountains around the ranch have an extensive network of old logging roads and cattle trails through the bush to nearby lakes and streams and up into the alpine. We have a variety of rides that vary in duration from a couple of hours to all day rides. The pace of our rides varies with the terrain and the experience and preferences of the group. Riding lessons are also offered in our riding arena. So whether you’re a novice rider looking to improve your riding or an experienced rider who wants to blaze the trails at a faster pace, we’ll make sure you get an exhilarating day in the saddle. In addition to the horseback rides, we have a variety of on-site activities and facilities for you to enjoy during your stay including hiking and mountain biking trails and a horseshoe pitch.

During the winter months, we are only minutes away from the ski hills of Sun Peaks Resort
Typical Day
Wake up in your cabin, have morning coffee on the porch watching the sunrise. Amble over to the lodge where a breakfast feast awaits you. Head down to the barn where your horse will be saddled and waiting for you. Ride out on the mountain trails to the east of the ranch, spot some deer, and meander back along the creek to the ranch. Take lunch on the deck and then after a short break, saddle up again and head out west through the forest trails. Return to the ranch in time to freshen up and enjoy a sundowner on the deck, followed by a 3-course dinner cooked by our resident Chef. After dinner, sit around the camp fire and relive the highlights of the day with your new found friends. Play a hand of cards, or a game of pool and then fall into bed in your cosy cabin hidden in the trees.
