This ride is a great choice if you're looking for an easy-going ride without steep climbing. We will ride through grasslands and mixed pinon and juniper forests, some Ponderosa stands, and for part of the ride, follow the rocky edge of a wide canyon. You will get 360 degree views, and be able to see the peaks of the Sangre de Cristo, Ortiz and Sandia mountains. The driving time to get to the starting point for this ride is about 35-40 minutes driving time from Santa Fe.

Please call or email us to check availabilty for the date(s) you would like to ride. Once we agree on a date, we ask for a 50% deposit to reserve your spot, which can be paid online here. Since we reserve your horses for your date, this deposit is non-refundable. (We reserve to the right to cancel a booked ride if we determine that severe weather conditions make it unsafe to ride. In this case, your deposit will be refunded.)
When checking out, click "APPLY COUPON" and enter code DEPOSIT. This will give you the amount due for your 50% deposit. Simply repeat this by the night before your ride for the remaining balance. If you prefer to pay the balance in cash, on the morning of your ride, please let us know in advance of your ride date. If you would like to pay the full amount online to avoid returning to check out again, that is also fine.
We're really glad that you're interested in riding with us, and we'd like to give you some tips to help you have the best time possible.

We could encounter a variety of weather conditions, so please bring extra layers and a rain jacket. For the safety of both riders and horses, we have a 200 lb. weight limit. Sorry, but we can't let anyone ride in sandals, shorts, or anything else we consider unsafe.
