Travel by horseback is an unforgettable way to experience the rolling hills and wide-open spaces of Saskatchewan’s southwest. Get in touch with your inner cowboy. Whether you are a seasoned rider or a bona-fide city slicker, southern horseback outfitters and ranches connect you to an authentic western lifestyle and hospitality.

Historic Reesor Ranch

Nestled in the beautiful Cypress Hills, Historic Reesor Ranch is home to six generations of the Reesor family. In 2017, the Reesor’s dedication to preserving history was recognized, becoming Saskatchewan’s first working ranch to be designated a Provincial Heritage Property.

Ever wanted to be a cowhand? At the ranch you can join wranglers as they gather, move and sort cattle the way it’s been done at for over 100 years.

At the end of a long day, fill up at the Ranch Hall Grill and enjoy cowboy poetry around the campfire recited by your host, Scott Reesor.

La Reata Ranch

For those looking for an authentic cowboy way-of-life experience, La Reata Ranch will give you just that. The ranch is located in the Saskatchewan River valley, on the shores of Lake Diefenbaker.

No matter your ability, La Reata has a horse for exploring the 5,000 acre ranch property. Owner and operator, George Gaber, welcomes guests from Europe and all over North America. With a minimum stay of two nights, you are sure to get a feel for life on the ranch.
