GROUP TOUR DESCRIPTION - for meeting planners

MOUNTAIN TRAIL RIDES

        
We'll ride by old mines, deserted cabins and across creeks. You stand a good chance of seeing deer or even elk, as this is the same remote area where we offer big game outfitting in the fall. The aspen groves, pine trees and rock formations are beautiful. At the highest point of the trail, you can see three different mountain ranges at the same time.  Two hour rides seem to be about right for most guests who do not do a lot of riding.  An experienced wrangler accompanies all guests.  Your guide will help you with your horse and take you to beautiful overlooks.  Much of the ride will be in the Pikes Peak National Forest.  Available AM & PM daily.  (1 hr and 2 hr)

Jeep Tour & Horseback Ride Combo

Nothing beats horseback riding in the Rocky Mountains

This is a wonderful Jeep outing for guests that have a little less time and/or want a dramatic way to end the day.  (The tour may also be scheduled at other times during the day)  As a "sunset tour" it departs daily at approximately two hours before sunset and returns just before dark.

Your authentic cowboy driver takes you out of town via North Cheyenne Canyon past The Star Kempf sculpture garden, fast-flowing mountain springs, Helen Hunt Falls, and into the foothills of Pikes Peak. 2000 feet above Colorado Springs we follow the old Shortline Railroad grade, now known as, Gold Camp Road. The views out over the city to the plains of Kansas can be as great as 105 miles. You'll travel hrough two original railroad tunnels blasted through solid rock and eventually wind down into the Old Colorado City National Historic District.  Along the tour your guide will share tall tales and true stories of Colorado and the West.

For the evening version, the sun is setting as we enter Garden of the Gods with its spectacular red rock formations bathed in purple shadows and highlighted by the setting sun.  During the day, you'll often see expert climbers ascending the rock walls of Garden of the Gods...hundreds of feet in height. We stop at photo points along the way that show Pikes Peak with a backdrop of beautiful cloud formations and the flaming sunset.

2 hours long

We recommend adding a coolers of beverages for each jeep to enjoy during the tour.

Our Cowboy drivers pick you up & take you high into the mountains above Colorado Springs for your horseback ride.
