"Pony" Rides
For the little ones!  The kids just love this  20-minute ride along the banks of Maroon Creek.  They will sit atop their own horse led by an experienced wrangler.  Great for kids under age 7 that can't go on the trail rides. 
$30/person

Wagon Rides
For those of you that would rather not ride but would still like to appreciate the spectacular Maroon Creek Valley, this one’s for you!  A full hour in a horse drawn wagon allows you to relax and take in the sights and sounds of the valley while someone else does the driving. 
$250/Hour up to 16 people

Overnight Pack trips

Base Camp
Have your box lunch at the trailhead while the wranglers get the horses packed up, then mount up for the ride to base camp.  Once we arrive at camp and get settled in, the rest of the day is yours to ride, fish, read, hike or anything else you would like to do.  Dinner is served up fresh over the coals of the fire.  We mount up and ride back out the following day after a leisurely breakfast.   
(4 person minimum please)
$395/person

*Willow Lake
We only do this trip once a summer and is it ever spectacular.  This is a four-day trip, so bring a change of clothes. We ride to camp on the first day and get settled in, all meals are served over the campfire.  Day two is a rest day for the horses and you are welcome to hike or fish; the day is yours. On day three, we mount up and enjoy a day ride into East Snowmass Creek where we have lunch. The fourth day, we return to the trailhead.  This trip is for more experienced riders and we can take no more than six people with a minimum of four.  You will remember this one forever.   Please see Adventure Rides for this year's excitement!
$300 day/person
*The Willow Lake ride is bookedHowever, if you are interested in spending the night under the stars watching the meteor shower, we can definitely plan an overnight ride for you for this special event.

Ride-N-Dine
This unique event begins with a two-hour trail ride along Maroon Creek. With the sun on your back, guests will follow the trail to our chef-prepared private dinner next to the clear waters of Maroon Creek.  The table setting is in stark contrast to the ride, as you will find tables set with linens and a roaring fire to greet you at the end of the ride.  Great for the whole family! The standard meal is a steak dinner; if you would like a custom dinner ride for your party, we will work with you on the details. Our lobster dinner has been very popular.
(Six person minimum please)
*Starting at $150/Person
