Join us on the farm just 10 minutes North of Cochrane for your very own Miniature Horse Adventure!
We have a herd of over 50 friendly Miniature Horses. Many are current or retired show horses, and they love to meet visitors and show off their special skills!
Here's some of the activities you could participate in as a part of your Adventure!
- Meet the Herd
We love to start an Adventure by meeting the whole herd - wander through to pet and make friends with everyone, hear all their stories, and decide who you'd like to play with today! You can also visit with our goats, ducks and chickens for a full farm experience.
- Basic Skills & Safety
You don't need any previous horse experience - we'll get you started on the right foot with a brief lesson in communicating with your horse, and how to stay safe.
- Grooming
Brushing is a great way to start bonding with your new friend. Find their favourite brush, and favourite spot to be brushed. And you're welcome to braid their mane and tail too if you'd like - you can even add some sparkle!
- Horse Agility Obstacles
Challenge you and your new Miniature Horse friend with an agility course. Over, under and through, you'll be impressed how brave and surefooted they can be! You'll learn to be a good team mate too, as horse and human need to work together to complete the course.
- Tricks
Many of our herd love to show off their tricks - in fact, you'll probably see quite a few when you Meet The Herd! And if your chosen horse for the Adventure has any special tricks, we'll make sure to teach you how to ask them to perform so you can get photos and videos!
- Jumping
Many of our Miniature Horses love to jump! We'll teach you how to set them up for success and soon you'll have them flying over the jumps - another great photo op, and demonstration of your new partnership!
- Nature Walk
We can each take a horse and go for a walk. Take turns letting your horse decide where to go, or finding the best bits of grass for them to take a snack break! Enjoy the beautiful mountain views and do some birdwatching too - we also regularly spot coyotes, deer, moose, and elk!
Miniature Horse Adventures aren't just for kids! There's no age limit on pony fun!
With so many horses, all of whom can choose whether they want to be involved or not, and each with their own special interests and talents, every Adventure is unique!
What To Bring
Make sure to wear closed toed shoes (both to prevent squished toes, and because farms aren't the cleanest for bare feet!)
Dress for the weather. If it's going to be too rainy or cold, we're happy to postpone and reschedule to a nicer day!
Whatever you need for an hour of outdoor activity - water, sunscreen, hat.
Your camera or phone - take as many photos of your adventure as you like!
