Welcome to the
Black Cat Guest Ranch

Warm weather activities include horseback riding, hiking and sightseeing. You will see many of the species of wildlife which abound on the ranch and in the surrounding woods. You can hike the spectacular Mt. Solomon trail to explore a mountain to its very top. Trails of lesser difficulty lead to equally beautiful lookouts and points of interest, like Solomon's Grave. There is also some excellent white water rafting in the area and in Jasper.

In winter you can hike or cross-country ski (weather permitting) on our great trails. In the spring and fall you can participate in murder mystery weekends, painting, photography and writing workshops, or if you are over 55 years of age, we offer 3 or 4 Elderhostel sessions each year. Try the Black Cat as a great place for a very productive corporate retreat or family reunion. Check out the ranch for an old-fashioned Christmas or New Year's Eve celebrations. In need of a little R & R? Check out our spa weekends.

Participate in outdoor activities to your heart's content, relax in our comfortable lodge, savour the home-cooked flavour of our family-style meals and you will find the Black Cat Ranch is the perfect place for anyone wishing to escape the hectic pace of everyday life and appreciate the possibilities of a mountain wilderness area.
