Take A Carriage Ride Through The Mountains For A Truly Unique Montana Experience

There’s something magical and nostalgic about seeing a horse-drawn carriage or sleigh transporting happy passengers across scenic lands. But it’s even better when you’re the one enjoying the ride. Located in Gallatin Gateway, Yankee Creek Carriage Company offers draft horse carriage rides and sleigh rides – and they’re amazing.

The Yankee Creek Carriage Company trots people all over Southwest Montana.

While the business itself is located in Gallatin Gateway, it also offers services in Bozeman, West Yellowstone, Big Sky, and Belgrade.
The horses have a good life on the farm when they aren't working, although they're always happy to lend a hand.

You can even rent the horses to come help with your farm work.

In fact, Yankee Creek Carriage Company owner Paul Zitzer does all his farm work with machinery pulled by his horses, Blue & Bell and Larry & Curly.
Of course, the most popular event for the carriages are weddings - being transported by a horse-drawn carriage is pretty magical, after all.

That being said, you can book a carriage ride to enjoy with your family or friends as well.
When Southwest Montana becomes blanketed with snow, Paul and his team get the sleigh ready.

The large sleigh holds 10-12 people, while the small, cozy sleigh seats four.
Two-hour wagon and sleigh rides here cost $300 for up to six people or $450 for seven or more people.

These rates are based on rides from Gallatin Gateway. The company will travel, but you'll have to spend at least $600 (it's worth it).
This activity is fun for all ages, and it's an amazing experience to share with your guests from other states.
