Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before you ride. Don't see your question? Call or text us — we're happy to help.
I have never ridden a horse before. Do I need experience?
No experience is necessary to ride our horses. They are trained especially for novices, and many of our clients have never ridden before. Our horses are quiet and gentle. You'll be given specific instructions before your ride, and your guide will be right with you on the trail to answer questions and help.
I'm an experienced rider. Do you have a horse for me?
Yes we do. Some of our clients have ridden for years and are expert riders. We will fit the horse to your experience and ability level.
How old do you have to be to ride with you?
We recommend riders be at least 6 years old to ride with us. We do not allow riders under 6 on the trail rides — a pony ride may be arranged for younger riders. Riders under 18 must wear a helmet, which we provide. For safety we cap riders at 75 years old; if someone older than 75 would like to ride, contact us about other options such as riding lessons.
Is there a weight limit?
Our weight limit for most of our horses is 220 pounds, but if you weigh more than 220 lb, contact us — we can accommodate you with a larger horse ( up to 300 lb)
May I ride double with my child or another adult?
For safety reasons, we require that each rider have his or her own horse. Babies and children under 6 cannot be strapped to a parent on the trail rides.
Are the trails too challenging for beginners — or not challenging enough for experts?
We have trails for everyone, from the beginner to the experienced rider. Our guides are experienced and able to tailor your ride to your experience and preference.
Can we ride alone?
No. We require that all parties ride with a guide — not only does our insurance require it, but we are permitted to ride only on specific trails on public lands and in the regional park. It's easy to stray from the designated trails or become lost if you don't know the area well.
Can we run on the horses?
No. It is not safe to run on the horses — the terrain is rocky and uneven, and most accidents on horseback happen while running. Even experienced cowboys don't run unless it's necessary. Our insurance and Nevada state law do not allow running.
What shall I wear while riding?
You'll need long pants, enclosed shoes or boots (no sandals), and a shirt or blouse. Sunglasses are a good idea in the summer. In cooler months, wear layered clothing and a hat — mornings and evenings can be cold.
What do I need to bring for the tour?
Bring something to drink — staying hydrated in the desert is a priority. We recommend water; juice and sports drinks are fine, but caffeinated sodas and tea tend to dehydrate. Alcoholic beverages are not permitted. You may also want sunscreen, sunglasses, a light snack, and definitely your camera. We discourage backpacks — they're uncomfortable to ride in and horses tend to be afraid of them. Fanny packs and small front-worn packs are generally acceptable, and we have saddlebags to carry items. Don't forget a tip for your guides — they work hard!
How is the weather? Do you ride year-round?
We are open year round! Winter months (December–February) are beautiful but can be cool in the mornings and evenings, with warm days. Spring and fall (March–May and September–November) are warm but comfortable — sunscreen, water, and a hat are a must, and please no shorts or open-toe shoes. Summers are hot, so morning rides are the best bet.
What is your cancellation and reschedule policy?
There are no refunds for cancellations — we will only allow you to reschedule or cancel rides. Rescheduling is $10 per person when done more than 24 hours before your ride and $20 per person within 24 hours. If you reschedule to an upgraded time or date (sunset, weekend, holiday), you'll be charged the difference. You may have up to 2 years to reschedule and use your purchased ride (a comparable ride at current prices; fees apply). If bad weather makes a ride unsafe, we honor rain checks — reschedule at a time convenient for you, with no fee when the weather is deemed unsafe by us
The Fine Print, Made Simple
Trail Riding Policies
A quick summary of how reservations, rescheduling, and rides work. The full details are on our FAQs & Policies page.
Refund Policy
There are no refunds (voucher or money) once you have made a reservation. Your ride time is reserved specifically for you, which prevents someone else from riding at that time. We are a small family business and cannot absorb the loss of revenue for refunds when riders change their minds. Once you fill out our reservation form and book with us, you are accepting the terms of the ride — the guide, the horses, equipment, the location of the ride, and more. You may reschedule (fees apply).
Rescheduling
You may reschedule as many times as you like: $10 per person each time when done more than 24 hours before your ride, $20 per person within 24 hours. If you don't reschedule before the 24-hour mark, the cancellation fee also applies. Upgrades to sunset, holiday, or weekend rides require paying the difference. Rescheduled dates depend on availability, and no refunds are given for late arrivals.
Rain Check
We can't predict Mother Nature, so we honor the rain check — if weather turns bad, you can reschedule your ride for another time at no charge when the weather is deemed unsafe by us. Our scheduled rides can go out in most conditions unless the guides determine it isn't safe.
No-Show Policy
If you do not show up for your ride and have not rescheduled or canceled, you will be charged a $10 per person cancellation fee. This includes missing your ride due to being late when we were unable to hold the ride for you. Please allow ample time to reach us — it's your responsibility to have proper directions to our location.
Sober Activity Only
Horseback riding is a sober-only activity. No drugs or alcohol are permitted. Any guests suspected of being intoxicated will be refused service with no refund.
Gratuities
Our wranglers work only for tips. They are dedicated to you having a safe and enjoyable experience, and they appreciate your thanks — gratuities are part of their compensation and are not included in the base price of trail ride pricing.
Payment
We accept all 4 major credit cards, and payment is due in full at the time of booking.
Height, Weight & Age Restrictions
Weight limit is 260 lb per rider (strictly enforced for the health of our horses). Riders must be 6 or older for trail rides; riders 18 and under must wear a helmet (provided). For safety, riders are capped at age 75 — contact us about riding lessons or other options for older guests. One person per horse; children cannot ride with a parent. Younger children may enjoy pony rides and riding lessons, scheduled in advance upon availability.
