Description
Escape the tourist crowds and explore the Absaroka Mountains on horseback. Follow time-worn trails through fragrant sagebrush and towering evergreens. This is Yellowstone country — seen authentically.
From the moment you settle into the saddle, the world begins to slow down. The gentle sway of your horse, the crunch of hooves on dirt, and the crisp Montana air set the tone for a truly immersive ride.
Throughout this two-hour journey, you’ll wind through towering pine forests where shafts of sunlight dance across the trail, and the air is thick with the scent of fresh pine. Soon, the landscape opens into expansive sagebrush flats, offering sweeping views of the rugged Absaroka Mountains. Wildlife often makes an appearance—keep an eye out for elk, deer, and soaring birds of prey.
As the trail leads on, you’ll cross broad meadows, where the pace eases, and there’s space to breathe, reflect, or savor the view. Each turn reveals a new facet of Montana’s wild beauty, from the soft rustle of grasses to the distant silhouette of snow-dusted peaks.
Whether you’re an experienced rider or stepping into the stirrups for the first time, expert wranglers are there to guide and support you throughout the ride. Families and first-timers alike will feel welcome and at ease.
By the ride’s end, as you return to the trailhead with dust on your boots and the scent of sage in your hair, you’ll carry with you a quiet satisfaction — and memories of Montana’s untamed landscapes best seen from the back of a horse.
