A One-of-a-Kind Farm Adventure

Trade the ordinary trail ride for something truly unique! Our Livestock Trail Rides let you saddle up and experience an authentic farm herding adventure, riding alongside our sheep and border collie shepherd dogs through our pastures and wooded trails.

Animals on the Farm

Meet a diverse herd of horses, including some of the largest and gentlest known breeds. Give a treat to our miniature donkeys and ponies that love attention, watch our pigs do tricks, take pictures with a beautiful peacock, and feed our chickens, turkeys, and other fun farm friends—plus get up close with our sheep and hardworking border collies.

Western Frontier Town

Venture inside an old west general store! Watch out—the Sheriff is in town, so rowdy citizens coming from the saloon may spend a night in our town jail!

What to Expect

Upon arrival, we will conduct your safety brief before you meet and mount your horse. Your trail guide will pair you with a horse based on compatibility, then walk you through an orientation explaining how to safely and comfortably communicate with your horse. From there, you'll head out on your trail ride alongside our sheep and hardworking border collie shepherd dogs—a beginner-friendly, one-of-a-kind experience you won't find on a typical trail ride.

Ending Your Ride

At the conclusion of your ride, you'll be led back to the arena to dismount. Carrots are sold in our office so you can treat our petting zoo animals (please, no outside food). Before you leave, enjoy our Western Town buildings for a few more photos. Enjoy your ride, tip your guide! See ya on the trails, partner.
