Capitol Reef National Park is 378 square miles of colorful canyons, ridges, buttes, and monoliths. Rides are open to all horse enthusiasts and nature lovers. Although heart and athleticism are often more important than experience when judging horses or riders, riders should be in control at walk, trot and short canter. We strive to give experienced riders all the pace and challenge they desire, and to give inexperienced riders all the instruction and patience they need. Time and logistics permitting, we often divide into two groups riding to separate destinations or scenic features. What we guarantee, with the help of seasoned guides, wranglers, cooks and horses, is access to a rugged and scenic landscape of immense scale. We couple this--access to the backcounty--with an unencumbered and comfortable ambiance at the end of each day where you can relax, refresh and rejuvenate prior our next day adventure. (Non-riding companions are welcome on all trips.) HORSES: Our remuda consists of ranch raised Quarter Horses with a few Thoroughbreds, Arabians and Mustangs. Most of the horses we've bred and raised ourselves. Scheduled rides feature complete outfitting (everything you'll need except personal accoutrements) with deluxe base-camping. Camping trips include one night motel lodging and four nights base-camping with five days of trail riding.
