Make Memories with a Horseback Riding Adventure!

Incredible Day!

"The instructor was a cool, knowledgeable, and experienced rider. She gave us kudos along the way and took us to the top of a mountain to get pictures of our great adventure. The horses were well behaved and our 90 minutes on the trail was the best part of our week in CO."

Beautiful Scenic Ride!

"My daughter loves the experience of riding for 1 hour through a beautiful scenery. They even gave my 5 year old an option to ride for a few minutes so she didn't feel left out. The horses appear to be happy and the staff are friendly.. It's a must on our Colorado vacation."

Heaven On Horseback!

"We were treated to a spectacular ride through the Aspens by our guide and owner, Nicole. She runs a very professional business with attention to detail. The horses were easy to manage and well groomed. We had so much fun we've decided to make this an annual ride."

Wonderful Location!

"My wife had never ridden before. The folks at Bearcat Stables could not have been better at putting her at ease and learning the basics needed for our ride. The staff are all so friendly! I highly recommend BS to you if you want a Vail Valley trail ride."

Well Trained Horses!

"We are inexperienced riders but the staff gave us good directions. Plus, the horses were very well trained. We went through scenic trails going to a very high point. We took the 2 hour tour which was plenty of time. Thanks to Denise and Nicole, the owner."
