The Ruidoso Equine Trail Riding Experience

 


Whatever your skill level, you’ll enjoy our gaited trail horse rides through the stunning New Mexico Mountains. Customize your
ride for couple of hours or a day, making it as varied and intensive as desired. Guests participating in our horseback riding lessons and sessions gain the satisfaction of caring, grooming, saddling and becoming friends with their mount.

     

 
The smoothest rides in memorable Billy the Kid horse country.
We will introduce you to some of the most beautiful horses in the world: our Peruvian Pasos, Brazilian Mangalarga Marchadors, and Tennessee Walkers. An experienced guide will accompany you as you explore the high mountain trails. You have complete control over your own horse as we ride free, not in a head-to-tail line. Your safety and enjoyment are our number one priority.

You participate in grooming, saddling, bridling, massaging and becoming friends with your mount. You then practice riding in our arena before we go out on trail. Only when you are completely at ease do we head for the ride of a life-time.

"The experience with the gaited horses was unbelievable...It was only thanks to the patience of horse and trainer that I arrived at the point that I could feel they really are very comfortable mount. …[We] had the most wonderful time, which can certainly be attributed to the accommodations, but perhaps even more to our gracious hostess.
