Horse camps

Canada's finest horse camp since 1967

Horse camp

The Teen Ranch horse program is for all ability levels to learn or develop their skills on safe, well-schooled horses.

Beginner riders start with the basics of position and control. Intermediate riders continue to hone the basics while being introduced to new skills. Advanced riders will be challenged to perfect their jumping position, equitation and effective communication with their horse.

Teen Ranch instructors are trained according to CHA standards, putting the largest emphasis on safety, education and fun. All full-time staff are certified in First Aid.

Overnight camp for outrageous fun

Overnight campers experience all the fun and adventure a week of summer camp has to offer. Campers enjoy the great outdoors, get active, and make new friends.

In the morning, campers hone skills in their program/sport of choice. Afternoons are their chance to enjoy a variety of Teen Ranch activities and bunkroom time - a unique opportunity for growth, bonding, and overall fun!! Evenings include camp-wide games and nightly campfires with engaging, real-life topics shared from a biblical perspective.

Campers are housed in top-notch facilities that include a private washroom and air conditioning.

Our well-trained staff are committed to the safety and well-being of each camper and aim to come alongside them to challenge, encourage, and inspire!

My child loves Teen Ranch and requests to go every year. That says so much coming from a kid. It is the only camp she is always eager to attend. She loves the horses and horseback riding. She loves the diverse activities, the food, and crafts. The staff are wonderful and friendly and she can't wait to go again!
