Trail ride the beautiful Southern Rockies!
Come ride gentle horses with friendly, knowledgeable guides of the Rio Grande Stables. Explore the Land of Enchantment on the slopes of the Taos Ski Valley where the Sangre de Cristo Mountains rise 13,000 ft. above you. Enjoy the stunning vistas of the Southern Rocky Mountains from trails that wind among the aspens and ponderosa pines.

Whet your appetite with a one hour ride or better yet, enjoy a two hour trip along Bull of the Woods Creek. More experienced riders and nature enthusiasts will appreciate the three and four hour trails which climb above the tree line to alpine meadows dotted with wildflowers. And for the more adventurous yet, the Rio Grande Stables offers full day horseback excursions. Ride to Wheeler Peak, the highest point in New Mexico, and try your luck with cutthroat trout from a timberline lake, or spend the day looking for elk, bighorn sheep and other Sothern Rockies wildlife. All this and more awaits you!

Combine your horse trip with a stay in the Taos Ski Valley. From it's quiet, relaxed atmosphere you can explore the surrounding area. Taos is world famous for its art, Native American culture, and international ambiance. Visit Taos Pueblo, enjoy great food, shopping, and much, much more.
