Cheryl_M, Jul 2021
Wow, such an amazing experience. The mountain trails were so beautiful and peaceful. The views were breathtaking. My horse was perfectly paired for me. My guide was awesome and we enjoyed a lovely day together. Definitely would do this again and highly recommend it. Thank you for an outstanding experience.
