Which Ride is Right For Your  Horseback Adventure?


Scenic Loop
 1 Hour
$55 Adult  / $50 Child 
Easy trail with gradual hills winding through the trees and expansive views of the Buckhorn Range. Great for younger kids and beginners, yet scenic and enjoyable for all skill levels

Buckhorn Loop
1.5 Hour  
 
$70 Adult  /  $65 Child 

This trail branches off the scenic one hour ride crossing the Michelson Trail to access the foot hills of the Buckhorn Range. Ride into the aspens and birch; climb up through the rocks past a small mica mining area. Great ride to do a bit more climbing, still easy enough for all ages and skill levels.



Aspen Tunnel
2 Hour 
  $90 Adult / $85 Child

Get even further off the beaten track by continuing along the foothills of the Buckhorns.  Experience steeper climbs with great views; ride through thick aspen groves and next to granite outcroppings! More moderate in difficulty, yet still appropriate for novices in good physical condition.

Crazy Horse Half Day
3.5 Hours  
  $140 Adult / $130 Child 

For the more adventurous - continue even further into the back country with more climbing along granite walls/outcroppings favored by rock climbers!  Dismount at midway point to stretch your legs and climb a small hill for another view of Crazy Horse Memorial.  After a brief rest, mount up and enjoy a more leisurely trail back along the old mike mine track.
