trails USA

Over the last 20 years I have had the privilege to guide several hundert different horses and their owners across the Alps on various trails. All Alpine Rides in Europe are with people that bring their own horses. There never was a problem with any of the horses. If we had difficulties, it was with the rider. That is why i stopped training horses, and started training people. 

​

If you register with the Trail Ride Crew, you will not just enjoy the wild beauty of Colorado, on different rides, but also have someone on hand, that can help you with your mount, that you are riding, if needed. There will be several clinics ranging from getting your horse bomb proof to how to pack Ultra-Light, or how to use and plan a trail with a Garmin GPS.

 

Additionally we have 5 additional horses, some of them have covered the entire CDT, and others, are ridden by my grand kids. So if you bring a friend, that needs a horse for the ride, we can accommodate that too. 

​

Traveling Ultra-Light means we don't use pack horses.
All our equipment is on the horse and we keep it to the absolute minimum.

We have two horses that can carry up to 200 lbs, 3 of them are for smaller riders.

We expect you to know how to saddle a horse and ride in trot and canter.

We do walk at times, and that means you need to be able to get back up on the horse from a tree or a rock. You are riding at your own risk and have to sign a waiver.
