RSSThe 3 Most Popular Horseback Riding Vacations
In recent years, there has been a growing popularity in horseback riding vacations. Travel agencies and tourism guides now offer a variety of packages that offer equestrian adventure vacations. Riding horseback is a great way to enjoy the outdoors and see the world without crowded streets, long lines, and noisy tour buses.
One of America’s favorite vacation destinations is visiting dude ranches. You can find a variety of ranches sprinkled throughout the United States, many of which are found in Colorado, Montana, and Wyoming. Colorado dude ranches are a symbol of the Old West where guests are privileged to experience a real live working ranch. They allow you to ride the range, work the cattle, fix the fencing, and milk the cows. Dude ranches also cater to those who prefer a more luxurious, all-inclusive resort as opposed to dust, sweat and saddle rashes.
Another adventurous riding vacation gaining popularity is horseback riding safaris. They are most often in Africa but other parts of the world are developing an interest of their own. Horseback riding safaris are safe, with at least 2 trained guides, and suitable for all riders. Vacationers are discovering the stunning beauty of nature on horseback. They are the ultimate adventure in getting up close and personal with wild game and truly experiencing life in its environment.
Horseback riding vacations have made their way to the beautiful undisturbed stretches of the Pacific Coastline. It is an equestrian lover’s dream to gently rock down these golden sandy beaches on the back of a Tennessee Walking horse. Nature seems to slow down on this trail ride of spectacular rocky cliffs, rolling hills, private beaches and acres of charming wilderness filled with meadows of wildflowers and redwood trees. Whether you wander halfway around the world or just a few hundred miles down the road, horseback riding is the ultimate vacation adventure.
