Nestled on the shores of Green Lake in the heart of British Columbia's Cariboo region, Flying U Ranch offers an authentic western experience that has been delighting guests since 1849. As Canada's oldest continuously operating guest ranch, it provides a unique blend of history, adventure, and rustic charm. At Flying U, guests enjoy guided horseback riding through 60,000 acres of forests, meadows, and lakeside trails. With over 100 horses and knowledgeable wranglers leading every ride, the ranch offers safe, skill-matched excursions for beginners and experienced riders alike. Every trail ride is a chance to immerse yourself in nature, Western heritage, and the joy of connecting with horses.
Stay in one of 24 historic log cabins, some dating back to the 1800s, complete with wood-burning stoves and rocking chairs. For those seeking more modern amenities, the ranch also offers luxurious lakeside executive homes. Meals are served family-style in the log dining hall, where hearty home-cooked dishes bring guests together like family.
Beyond horseback riding, we offer a wide range of activities to keep our guests entertained. Enjoy swimming, canoeing, and tubing on Green Lake, or participate in activities such as archery, yoga, and square dancing. Evenings are filled with campfires, hayrides, and live entertainment, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
Whether you're planning a family getaway, solo trip, romantic escape, or a group adventure, the Flying U Ranch offers a unique and memorable vacation rooted in the spirit of the Canadian Gold Rush!
