Horseshoe J Dude Ranch, Fingal, Ontario
You can ride the trails through the lovely southern Ontario countryside with an experienced guide.

The Dude Ranch is well known in this area and is a well-established family run business - being owned and operated for over 40 years by the Steele family.

In addition to trail riding, they also offer Summer Camps for children - check out their site for more information, or call 519-762-5402, or email them at duderanch@xplornet.ca

Several of our children have had their first riding experiences here, and they have always wanted to go back for more!
