Escape the summer heat.....
and head to the cool mountains of Sunlight Mountain Resort for a horseback ride.
What a better way to enjoy the West with a peaceful horseback ride through the White River National Forest filled with tall aspens and majestic pine trees of Sunlight Mountain Resort. Our experienced guides will take you through the acres of tall aspen, and point out the beautiful foliage, wildflowers and variety of wildlife.
One-Hour Ride
We take pride in giving Beginner and Intermediate horseback riders the chance to enjoy the same spectacular experience as those more advanced horseback riders. With a brief orientation to the horses and riding, and with our trained tour guides, this experience is sure to give even the most timid rider a new found confidence! Our scenic, family-friendly guided trail ride starts at the Sunlight Stables, adjacent to Sunlight Mountain Resort, high in the beautiful White River National Forest.
Private Ride
Not for the faint of heart, our extended ride for Intermediate and Advanced riders offers a combination of exquisite views, abundant wildlife and more advanced terrain. This ride will challenge even an advanced rider but is still safe. This ride features fantastic views of Mt. Sopris and the Elk Mountains from the top of Compass Mountain. But remember: what goes up must come down!
