For unique family fun, relive Canada’s
pioneer heritage by joining in a traditional horse-drawn covered wagon
adventure. Travel into a simpler time, where hoof beats and the jingle
of harness pace the day’s journey, and the day’s panoramic landscape rolls
by. Pauses along the way offer opportunities to explore wildflowers meadows,
varied terrain and vegetation, including medicinal herbs that the
Riding Mountain area is famous for. |
| Riding Mountain National Park is a unique
sanctuary in the heart of the continent, where prairies, northern spruce
woods and eastern hardwood forests meet. The largest elk and black bear
roam here. Other mammals you may spot include wolves, coyotes, foxes, beaver,
bobcats and muskrats. In the sky you might spot marsh hawks, red-tailed
hawks and eagles, as well as hundreds of songbird species. The waterproof
canvas wagon cover offers protection from rain and sun as you ride
along. |

| Enjoy tasty Bar-be-que buffet
meals. It’s amazing how much appetites improvein the fresh air all day.
Relive the past in stories and campfire songs, should yours be an overnight
tour. This year, we offer three choices for wagon tour vacations. All offer
the hands-on experience of hitching and handling heavy horses, and even
driving for those who wish to learn how it’s done. Routes are planned
for Clear Lake’s west prairies, day tours at Strathclair and Central trails,
with trailhead beginning at the north end of the bison range. |
