Jackson Hole: Bridger-Teton National Forest Horseback Ride

Explore the Bridger-Teton National Forest on Horseback with Heart Six Ranch while enjoying amazing Grand Teton National Park views.

Embark on a guided horseback riding adventure through the breathtaking landscapes of the Bridger-Teton National Forest in Jackson Hole. Ride with properly trained experienced wranglers and take in panoramic views of the Grand Teton mountain range as you follow scenic trails along a winding river and through the mountain range.

Begin your journey at one of the oldest and most historic dude ranches in the country. Choose between a 90-minute ride or extend your adventure with a half-day excursion. Meet your wrangler and guide, get fitted with riding gear, and receive a brief introduction to horseback riding. This introduction is in addition to the ride time so allow over two hours to complete your experience.

Before hitting the trails, we will match you with a horse best suited to your experience level and size to allow for a safe and enjoyable ride. Learn the basics of mounting, dismounting, rein control, and guiding your horse at a comfortable pace so that you are in full control of your horse.

Venture into aspen groves, lush mountain meadows, and pine forests while traversing winding forest trails as you immerse yourself in the untouched wilderness. Keep an eye out for native wildlife such as Elk, Moose, and Bears and take in the stunning scenery of the Tetons. Ride down into Buffalo Valley, following the gentle flow of a peaceful river and up into the mountains, before returning to the ranch with a newfound appreciation for the Wild West and a little cowboy attitude.

For the safety of our guests and horses, riders are carefully matched with the most suitable horse. We are unable to accommodate specific horse requests. The loading process takes time as we ensure each horse and rider are properly paired and comfortable, so please be patient as our wranglers prioritize safety and care for the animals. Groups average around 10 riders, and the loading process usually takes around 30 minutes, but may take over an hour. Please pay attention and don't play on your cell phone as you will be responsible for and in total control of your horse.
