Jesse and his entire team are fantastic! If you’re in Palo Duro and looking for a great horseback ride this is the place to go. Our family of 5 enjoyed every minute of it. Amazing canyon views along with a great staff make this a memorable family experience.

We had a great horseback ride with Grace and Danielle. Danielle was a great guide, we loved getting to learn more about the area. Grace did a great job making our 9 year old comfortable on her first horseback ride on her own.

Went on the 1 hour beginner trail ride. Really enjoyed the trip - but 1 hour in the saddle was enough for me. The Old West Stable is actually located inside the State Park, so you ride on the Canyon floor. There were both adults and children on the trail ride, and all seemed to enjoy themselves. Cost was $282 for 4 adults. The guides - Megan and Blain were both helpful and friendly, and the horses were all calm trail horses. Great fun for the entire family - but 1 hour is probably long enough - unless you are a hard core rocky trail riding kind of person. Highly recommend.
