One Hour Ride
On-location.Want to try riding but aren’t sure? This short ride is a great way to give it a try within the comfort of our own corrals. Warning: a 1 hour ride goes quickly, it might be over about the time you get comfortable and are hitting your stride with your mount.
Absolutely no prior experience is necessary; in fact, we specialize in beginners. Our guides give a brief yet thorough instruction just before introducing you to your horse and starting the ride. We take people from 6 to 106 on our rides, provided they are physically able to ride. We may let the younger cowpokes ride a horse on a lead rope (led by the guide) if they are unable to control their own horse. (Really little buckaroos can go on a "pony ride" at our corrals. They'll be on the back of a saddled horse and a parent can lead them around our corrals area, complete with picture-perfect views of those gorgeous red cliffs. A guide will be present and can even walk alongside to make sure the lil' one stays safely aboard.) Right from our barn under the gorgeous red rock cliffs of the Velvet Ridge, just three miles west of our retail store at the junction of Highways 24 and 12 in Torrey, we take people out on this easy, memorable 1-hour ride. The trail crosses the Fremont River and lazily winds under the cliffs towering overhead. Spectacular views and the possibility of seeing local fauna such as golden eagles, red foxes, and the ubiquitous rabbits make this a fun experience.
