"On behalf of both rafts that went on your establishment's whitewater raft adventure in Buena Vista, I just wanted to express how impressed and more than pleased we were with our excursion. Both guides did STELLAR jobs — they were both extremely knowledgable in addition to being totally amusing and fun. Their passion for the work they are doing was clearly obvious, which in turn translated into an awesome adventure for all."

"We will definitely be back next year! Thank you for an awesome time!!"

What to Bring Riding

When you explore Colorado’s high country by horseback, you’ll see first-hand Colorado’s amazing fall colors, bright spring wildflowers and wide-open blue skies. Horseback riding is an excellent way to travel along our mountain trails, and like all other Colorado activities, horseback riding requires a little preparation.

When you set out on a Colorado horseback ride, you’ll be most comfortable if you’re wearing the proper clothing. We’ll take care of all the horseback equipment, but read below to find out how to be best prepared for your next Colorado horseback ride.

What to Wear on Your Colorado Horseback Riding Adventure

For having fun in the saddle, long pants are recommended.
Wearing closed-toe shoes on all horseback rides helps prevent injuries to your feet.
No matter the weather, try to wear clothing made from woven materials such as wool, polypro, fleece, micro fleece, polyester and any other outdoor material that breathes.
Helmets are required and provided for all horseback riding adventures; baseball caps fit easily under helmets.

Rain jackets that cover you from head to toe are provided on all horseback trips.

If you’re unsure about what to wear or what to bring on your Colorado horseback riding adventure, give us a call at 800-997-3448 or E-mail Us. We’d be happy to talk to you about what kind of weather you can expect in Summit County, Colorado.

What to Bring on Your Colorado Horseback Riding Adventure

If you’re concerned about weather, you can bring extra clothing to keep in a saddlebag.
Though we provide lunch on the picnic ride and the full day, you may want to bring extra water and snacks on all horseback trips.
Sunscreen and sunglasses will help protect you from the high country sun.

Try our 2-hour wildlife ride for a taste of horseback riding near Breckenridge or go all in with a full-day horseback ride. These adventures are limited to 10 people per group, so you can expect amazing scenery and some peace and quiet to enjoy your Colorado horseback ride.
