Canyon Rim Ride:
Ride a well-trained, gentle horse along a canyon rim high atop Fossil Ridge. View the colorful Red Rock Escarpment and Spring Mountains. Watch for desert wildlife. See ancient caves, fascinating geologic formations, and breathtaking views of the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area in the morning light.
Sunset Ride & Barbeque:
Follow the winding trail down through the narrows on the canyon floor, where erosion has carved natural dens for coyotes, bobcats, and other small wildlife. Watch for wild burros as you cross the mesa. Then, under a sunset sky, enjoy Red Rock Canyon and the majestic and colorful Spring Mountains as you climb to the Overlook summit and glimpse the glittering lights of Las Vegas. Back in camp, enjoy a Western barbecue under the stars. Step up to the grill for a thick, juicy steak*, grilled to your liking and served with all the fixin's -- green salad, baked potato, baked beans, corn on the cob, and beverages. For dessert, gather round the campfire for an old-fashioned marshmallow roast and s'mores. Hear a bit of Western history and perhaps a traditional poem, then join us in an old favorite song. Perhaps our most popular ride, the Sunset Trail ride is offered daily.
