Trail Riding
Ride Into the Wild
Guided horseback rides through boreal forest, meadows, and creek corridors near the Alaska Range. Available spring through fall — and through much of winter when weather allows.
The Experience
There is simply no better way to move through the Alaskan wilderness than on the back of a horse. No engine noise, no mechanical barrier between you and the land — just the sound of hooves on soft earth, the smell of spruce, and a view that clears the mind like nothing else.
Our trail horses are experienced in Alaska terrain — they're steady on uneven ground, calm around moose (usually), and selected to match the experience level of each rider. No previous riding experience is needed for our guided 1-hour ride.
All trail rides include a pre-ride safety briefing, mounting assistance, and a guide for the entire duration. Maximum group size is 2 riders per guide to keep the experience personal.
Boreal forest, meadow loops, creek crossings, and elevated ridge views of the Alaska Range.
Beginner through advanced. Guide pairs you with the right horse before departure.
Moose, fox, eagles, and sandhill cranes are regular trail companions in peak season.
Up to 2 riders per guide. Private rides available any time of year by appointment.

Trail Availability
Trails are available most of the year. We suspend trail rides during the coldest months (typically January–February) when temperatures drop below -20°F consistently. Light snowpack winter rides are a magical Alaska experience we offer when conditions allow.
When trail conditions are safe (packed snow, mild temperatures above -15°F on-site), we offer winter trail rides — a truly unique Alaska experience. Riders are fitted with appropriate cold-weather gear and layering guidance. Contact us to check current winter trail status.
Take advantage of Alaska's midnight sun with an evening ride at 9pm or later. The light at this hour is something photographers call "the golden hour" — but in Alaska, it lasts for hours. One of our most requested experiences in summer.
Before You Ride
Book your ride, ask about current trail conditions, or inquire about our winter ride availability. Spots fill fast in peak season — reserve early.
