The Stampede Ranch

Some places you visit. Some places stay with you.

In the foothills southwest of Calgary, along Alberta's storied Cowboy Trail, a working cattle ranch of more than 135 years is opening its gates to a new chapter of Western hospitality — one guest, one gathering, one story at a time.

Our Legacy

135+ years in the Alberta foothills.

From Henry Minesinger's arrival at the storied Bar U Ranch, to Guy Weadick and Florence LaDue's dude ranch, to the Edey family's Stampede Boys' Ranch — this land has carried Alberta's ranching story for more than 135 years. Today it remains a working cattle ranch, welcoming a new era of guests.
