Glide over the sparkling snow in Banff in a horse-drawn sleigh. Cozy up under a wool blanket with family, friends or a loved one as your friendly driver takes you on a scenic ride through snow-covered meadows.
Start your tour in Banff, where you will meet a member of the riding office, who will check you in for your sleigh ride. Now it's time to climb into the sleigh and get cozy with your loved ones under a cozy wool blanket.
