Horseback Rides
See the Flathead Valley by air! Well, almost. While we
can’t promise you a ride on Pegasus, we do climb on our earth-bound horses
to elevations where the views of the Flathead Valley, Flathead Lake, and the
Swan Mountain Range are nothing less than spectacular.
Our horseback rides are all guided, and go through miles of private
timberland on both horse trails and logging roads. Though we do offer
shorter lesson rides for the novice rider (1 hour - $40), our most popular
ride, and the one providing the most fabulous scenery in the shortest amount
of time, is our morning or afternoon ride (2 hours - $55). We also offer a
half-day horseback ride, which includes a snack (4 hours - $110); and a full
day trail ride, which includes a picnic lunch at a spot overlooking the
Flathead Valley (8 hours - $175).
On longer trail rides, we ride through mountain forests that break out
onto clear plateaus with panoramic scenery, thus providing a variety of
terrain.
The Western Barbecue Dinner ride is our personal favorite. Enjoy a late
afternoon 1 hour horseback ride to the mountaintop, followed by relaxing
around the campfire while we prepare a traditional western barbecue. Your
choice of Flat Iron Steak, Chicken or Salmon. Meats are cooked over an open
wood fire (veggie burgers can be substituted), and served with all the
trimmings at the head of a secluded, peaceful meadow. $75 per person.
Here for a family reunion? With advance notice, our Western Barbecue can
be scheduled for large groups or private parties. Take the kids horseback
riding for the afternoon, and meet up with the grandparents around the
campfire at dinnertime. Let everyone get a taste of the west!
Because we operate in the mountains, all our rides are at a walk. We
provide helmets. Shoes (not sandals) are required, as well as long pants
(not shorts).
