The Hill's located just north of 100 Mile House at 108 is a great place thanks to the help of some of our Back Country Horsemen. There is now a camp site with corrals for your own horses. You can camp here for less then $20 per night and make use of the fabulous facilities. Pool , Hot tub  and restaurants.

 

 

 

Manning Park- Take the Manning park turn off just past Hope. This is a great ride to the Pacific Crest Trail head or to the top pike where you are right on the US boarder. It can get cold at anytime of year so be prepared. If you plan on camping you have to contact the Park to let them know you plan on staying the night in the day horse parking lot.  The trails are lovely.

Salmon Arm , Southern Interior B,C.

 

Skimikin Lake - Just before Salmon Arm. Great camp site miles of trails . Shuswap BCHBC holds an annual Poker ride in July. It is worth the trip up for. Visit local Wineries on horse back.

 

The Hoof and Woof B&B is located on a gorgeous 7 acres just outside Salmon Arm in Tappen, BC and is only 2 minutes off the number 1 Hwy. We are only minutes to Shuswap Lake so you can enjoy a range of water activities, golfing, hiking, horseback riding and so much more! Only 15 minutes to Salmon Arm where you can shop and take part in annual events like the Roots and Blues festival.
