  • ✔ Proper techniques for tying, grooming, and saddling a pony and horse
    ✔ How to mount, steer, and stop a pony and horse safely
    ✔ Arena exercises
    ✔ Games on horseback
    ✔ Riding drills
    ✔ Groundwork activities
    ✔ Gymkhana races
    ✔ Mini assisted trail rides around the ranch

  • Why Choose Our Horse Camp?

    Horse camps offer children invaluable life lessons by fostering responsibility, empathy, and confidence. Caring for horses teaches patience and discipline, while horseback riding improves physical strength, coordination, and problem-solving skills. Additionally, our camp provides a fun, screen-free environment where kids can build friendships, develop teamwork, and enjoy the beauty of Alberta’s foothills.

    Our Mission: Safety, Fun & Education

    Our priority is to provide a safe, fun, and educational equestrian experience for young riders. We welcome any questions or concerns and encourage parents to reach out at any time.

    Join us at Bar JO Ranch and create lasting memories in the great outdoors!
