Summer Recreation

Horseback Riding:

Our location just below the little Flattops with access to the expansive Routt National Forest provides for the perfect horseback outing. We'll pair you with a horse that matches your personality and riding ability. We offer more than just a nose-to-tail ride with trotting and loping opportunities for those who are comfortable. Our two hour ride takes you through gorgeous aspen meadows and along a scenic ridge with a rest-stop and photo op at a historic homestead. Our half-day ride journeys through thick aspens, open wildflower-fields, and valley-view overlooks and includes a delicious lunch. Our full day ride begins with a light breakfast and allows you to more fully explore the vast terrain, varied scenery, and unequalled beauty of the ranch and the surrounding forest. We will break in the middle of the day for a reenergizing lunch. We also offer overnight accommodations for those who want to warm up with a shorter ride and then explore more the next day. Stay in one of our comfortable backcountry huts or in our full-facility cabin. Guided fishing trips via horseback to the Little Flattops' high-mountain lakes also available (please visit Hunting and Fishing for more information).

Guided Wilderness Hikes and Wildlife Photo Tours:

Get out your camera and take a journey with us into the rugged wilderness and experience first hand Colorado's unique beauty. Take in the amazing scenery as you trek through the natural habitat of deer, elk, bald and golden eagle, red tail hawk, and many other native Colorado wildlife. We can create a hiking adventure to fit any experience or fitness level.

Cabin Stays and Family Activities:

Discover the majesty of the Little Flattops and Routt National Forest by staying with us overnight. Our accommodations suit your needs-from rugged tent camping to comfortable cabin stays. Bring family and friends and enjoy hiking, biking, fishing, or just relaxing. Enhance your fun by allowing us to set up a guided activity to suit your family's needs.
