The Guided Horseback Day Trip In Montana That Will Take Your Summer To The Next Level
If you’ve ever been horseback riding, you know how relaxing and fun it can be, especially when you’re trotting through some of Montana’s most stunning scenery. This summer, book a tour with Paintbrush Adventures and you can ride through the beautiful Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness for hours. And no worries if you’re not an equestrian – your tour will be completely guided.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life. While we continue to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, please take proper precautions or add them to your bucket list to see at a later date. If you know of a local business that could use some extra support during these times, please nominate them here: onlyinyourstate.com/nominate
Backcountry guide Wanda Wilcox and her family own The Barron Ranch. Wanda is a bit of a local celebrity -- she was recognized by the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame, and there's even a documentary about her called 'Kinship With the Land'.
The ranch offers cabin rentals and working ranch vacations for those who'd like to stay and experience ranch life firsthand.
The experience includes a picnic lunch, and you'll be surrounded by the most breathtaking scenery.
Each tour is customized to the needs and desires of the rider, and this is the perfect experience for the adventurous.
Spotting wildlife like deer, elk, foxes, coyotes, and moose is quite common.
Whether you've never been on the back of a horse or you're a regular rider, turning over the reigns to a professional and enjoying a relaxing guided hike will be a blast.
Rates range from $40 for an hour to $110 for the Saddle to Paddle adventure.
Address: 86 North Stillwater Road, Absarokee, Montana, 59001
