2 HOUR RIDE - Our two-hour rides take place in East Snowmass Creek or Snowmass Creek just minutes from Snowmass Village. This gentle horseback ride is a short getaway that is fun for families, groups, or a quite ride amidst your busy day. This two hour ride is a perfect way to enjoy the true Rocky Mountain wilderness; mountain peaks, lakes, wildlife, and enchanted forests that will make this trip one to remember.
LUNCH RIDES - A perfect way to spend an afternoon, after an hour horseback ride we will dismount and enjoy a gourmet lunch in a setting with spectacular high meadows and beautiful views. You can take scenic photos, enjoy a small hike, or just relax before heading home. KIDS EAT FREE!
DINNER RIDES - Indulge in the greatest views and atmosphere of any dining experience in the Roaring Fork Valley. After an easy one-hour ride you will find yourself in a place of insurmountable beauty as you enjoy a true cowboy BBQ followed by smores and storytelling around the campfire. This will be a night to remember. We have other dinner options, which include grilled salmon and trout almandine. We can also create a dinner to suit your personnel tastes and desires.
1⁄2 DAY RIDES - These half-day rides take you up into the Maroon Bells Wilderness area. The ride takes guests through beautiful forests, surrounded by high snow-capped mountains. At your leisure we will dismount and enjoy a snack, take some photos, and relax in one of Colorados most beautiful valleys. Guests have the choice of a morning ride or an afternoon ride. A full lunch is available upon request. Great for families and groups!
ALL DAY RIDES - In all of our All Day Rides, each individual group determines the time spent on the horses, as there is no particular destination that has to be reached before returning; if they prefer, they can stop at the beaver ponds along the way to fish and picnic.
FISHING AND GUIDED TRIPS - Our guided fishing trips are one of the best-kept secrets about the Snowmass Creeks. Throughout the ride up the spectacular Valley, there are numerous beaver ponds, creeks, and lakes that your guide will allow you to explore and fish. The great thing about high mountain fishing is the lack of fishermen and plentiful amounts of fish. In the morning and evening it looks like it is raining on Snowmass Lake because so many fish are jumping.
