While we try to keep all of our trail ride sizes
small, we understand that you may prefer to have
a more personalized*, intimate ride. If that’s
the case, then you should sign-up for one of our
private rides where our wranglers can help you attain
just the sort of ride you are looking for. Whether
it’s getting off the beaten path and exploring
the less-frequented areas of the ranch, or sticking
to the lower areas where riding at a more brisk pace*
is feasible, or just simply getting more personalized
attention from your wrangler, a private ride at the
Rusty Spurr Ranch is a sure way to have the most
custom experience you can find.
What better way to view the beauty of Colorado's
wilderness than from the back of a horse? Our non-nose-to-tail
rides ensure that our guests receive the personal
attention they deserve to have a truly interactive
horseback experience. Our remote location, conveniently
accessed from scenic Highway 9, ensures the preservation
of the same wildlife and landscape that the first
settlers discovered in the 19th century. It is not
uncommon for guests to encounter deer, elk, antelope
and other large game on our rides. You won't find
noise from condo construction or other activities
here. The whispering of the wind and the steady beat
of your horses hooves are all that you will hear
as they carry you through forests of aspen and pine
to the breathtaking, mountaintop vista of six different
mountain ranges and back down through the fragrant,
sage-filled high plains desert.
