Horseback Riding & Llama Trekking near Salida and Buena Vista |
Horseback and Llamas. From short, one-hour guided trail trips to rigorous multi-day excursions, a great variety of rides await visitors looking for a truly Western experience. Outfitters provide a choice of rides for those who haven't ridden as well as for those experienced equestrians. Those with horses who wish to visit the region can pick their trail and terrain. Stables are available and several Bed & Breakfasts will also board your horse during your stay.
For those who want to hike the 14ers region but do not want to carry all the gear, there's llama trekking. In the Salida/Buena Vista area there are several llama guide and outfitter companies permitted through the US Forest Service. |
Why llamas? Llamas are outstanding pack animals, especially for those inexperienced with animals. Their intelligence, surefootedness, calm and friendly disposition, moderate size, and minimal impact to the environment make llamas easy to lead, even for children as young as three years old.
Trails in the San Isabel National Forest wind through peaceful, stream-fed lush valleys, up wildflower carpeted alpine mountainsides, and across high mountain ridges and the Continental Divide. Friendly, trained, and experienced guides share their knowledge of the local area and history, geology, wildlife, and flora and fauna.
