“Like most trail rides, the horses know the way. Our guide rode up front and the 6 of us all followed in a line. The views were stunning. We saw Jackson’s downtown area and Snow King as well as sweeping views of Grand Teton National Park and the famed Tetons.” — Painted Buffalo

Spring Creek Ranch Horseback Riding Essentials

Experienced wranglers will saddle and fetch a horse for you. Experts in “equine sciences,” they’ll take a quick history of your horse ability, suss you up, and bring you the “proper” steed, like “Little Joe,” “Dusty,” “Major,” etc. All you have to do is step up off the stool and grab hold of the reins and go!

Dress comfortably in long pants like jeans and, as always in Jackson Hole, bring a few layers in case it gets cold. A hat, sunglasses and sunscreen are recommended since the sun at high altitude is particularly strong. Boots or sneakers are suitable for horse friendly footwear.

If you want to wear a cowboy hat or cowboy boots, there are plenty of places to shop for them in town.
