TRAIL RIDES & RATES

Visiting Arizona wouldn’t be complete without exploring its breathtaking landscapes on horseback. A typical trail ride begins and ends at the stable; after some introductions and instructions from your wrangler, they’ll pair you with a horse that matches your experience, and then you’ll saddle up and begin your adventure.

Leave the city behind and enjoy the peaceful, scenic Sonoran Desert on horseback. All of our trails have fantastic views of the Bulldog Cliffs, the incredible Sonoran Desert, and the Salt River. You’ll get to see the land Arizona cowboys made famous up close and personal and maybe even some critters!

We do accommodate large groups. For parties larger than 7 guests, please call (480) 984-0335 or email saguarolakeranchstable@gmail.com.

Please note: Trails vary with the season and are determined by the Wranglers based on trail conditions and safety. River crossings are subject to water levels and are typically only available during winter (November – February), but are never guaranteed. We strive to provide this river crossing experience when it is available, however, the safety of our riders and trail guides is our utmost priority!

RAVE REVIEWS

"Fantastic time by entire family, ages 10, 13, & 75. Lottie was a wonderful trail guide pointing out special sites and animals along the way. The horses were docile and well trained. The scenery was spectacular. Thank you to the entire staff for making it a memorable day. We hope to be back next year."
