Ryder Lake Ramble 2019

The Ryder Lake Ramble is an eclectic event that brings a community together and invites all to enjoy the unique combination of the wild woods, scenic views and farm life that make up Ryder Lake.

On Jun 15 - Jun 16, this two day, self-guided annual tour allows visitors to meander amongst the farms and gardens of the Ryder Lake community. This years highlights include alpacas, turtles, llamas, goats, horses, frogs, miniature donkeys, sheep and chickens! Several demonstrations will be held at various venues, including llama fibre being spun into yarn, lathe demonstrations, quilting and a sawmill.

You are invited to bring a picnic along to enjoy along your meanderings, and be sure to look for local sales on site which include refreshments, crafts, pottery, jams and jellies, plants, beeswax products, soaps, honey and lavender.

This year tickets will be available on the way up Elk View Rd NOT at the Ryder Lake Hall.
Tickets ($5 per person or $20 for a car-load) will be on sale at 47846 Elk View Road (1 km up the hill by the waterfall as you drive up into Ryder Lake). Note to regular Ramble visitors - there will be no food or activities at the hall this year.

With panoramic views, incredible landscapes, a taste of local artists and local handmade goods, beautiful trails, a goat herd, the toad tunnel and picturesque meadows, this event holds the promise of a day well spent.

Ramble hours are:
10-5 on Saturday, June 15th
and 12-5 on Sunday, June 16th.
Visit the Ryder Lake Ramble for more details on the various venues and for an interactive map.
