Description:
For a first-hand view of ranching and its significance in Calgary's history, this complex is exemplary. Set on 360 acres at the base of the Rockies are 35 buildings that have been gathered to showcase the workings and heritage of an authentic ranch. You'll find barns, stables, outbuildings, horse-drawn wagons, and all the other accoutrements that went into the running of a productive ranch. Costumed guides point out interesting facts and details about the era and lead groups around the facility. Depending on the season, you can also watch demonstrations on branding, roping, making hay and more. On the premises is also a visitor center, restaurant and a gift shop with locally-made items. About 1-1/2 hours southwest of Calgary.
