Life Evolves Here!
By not having an agenda – we let it unfold like a flower opening. Allowing room for synchronicity and spontaneity, we slow down and leave room to notice the gifts that life has waiting for us.
We are inviting you into our home, our private sanctuary, where you can participate in “The Wildhorse Way of Life”.
We are focusing on enhancing wellness and self-care through experiential learning for FIT, small groups, women and corporate.
There is no one like us in Alberta that offers this one stop immersion where you can Step Back in Time and be part of Living on the Land. Our herd of 50 magnificent, diverse beings is an encounter like no other, they truly depict the Power of the Herd and how important it is to be part of a community of likeminded beings.
We offer a variety of accommodations, meals, facilitation, tours, workshops, and a small art gallery. But most of all, this is what we are known for: “People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did. But people will never forget how you made them feel.” Peace Lives Here. Life Thrives Here!

Thank you Bear and Diane –
We all need this kind of passion in our lives. Something we believe in strong enough to make us shine when we talk about it.
Bear's information was so great!
He tells it like it is! This Land based learning camp, was amazing!
Amazing place!
I highly recommend Bear and Diane’s Wild Horse Ranch experience to Principals everywhere. No where else will your staff and student’s find a better connection to Mother Earth and all she can provide by way of traditional Land Based Learning. The Soulful And Honest exploration of Self in an environment of horses, nature, and enduring kindness and caring is life changing.
The willow craft was amazing
I was surrounded by delightful people all trying something new. I find this kind of activity interesting because Diane encouraged everyone to think about being creative versus perfect.
A weekend we will never forget
Just wanted to say thank you again for an AMAZING weekend of land based learning. We couldn’t have had it any better then it was. You and Bear were great hosts
Had an amazing week!!
Just got back from Wildhorse Ranch!!! Missing Ghost already and the ranch already!! Can't wait to come back and touch the earth!
WildHorse Ranch is a Must!
The most amazing, interesting, spiritual, caring, loving people you will ever meet! Loved the connection work with the land and the horses! Thank you sooo much!
Wonderful hosts
Bear’s introduction to the fort and the land was great, and then Diane’s introduction to the horses balances nicely.
