Horseback Riding
Discover Steamboat Springs the way they did when cowboys first settled in the Yampa Valley, on horseback. There are numerous scenic horseback trails all around Steamboat that are great for exploring the valley and the surrounding mountains.
Horseback riding is a perfect activity for couples, friends, family, and even large groups. Rides can last as short as an hour and as long as all day. Ranches are accustomed to accompanying all riding levels on all types of adventurous trail rides, so don’t hold back if you are just starting out. There is a ride out there perfect for you and your group, so saddle up and experience Steamboat’s western culture firsthand.
