The horseback trail ride takes you to the area where Georgia O’Keeffe found her inspiration, completed several paintings, and owned a home. The ride begins with an introduction and preview of examples of her work followed by a trail ride into the restricted area of Ghost Ranch where you see through your own eyes the actual locations of Georgia O’Keeffe’s paintings. The shining red and yellow cliffs of the Piedra Lumbre, the black trails of waterfalls against canyon walls, and her beloved Pedernal Mountain, interwoven with stories of her fifty years at Ghost Ranch. This ride is for all levels of experience.

NOTICE We reserve the right to cancel any ride at any time due to weather. If a ride is canceled, riders may recieve a refund or rebook the ride to a different day. If you are LATE for a ride, we cannot refund or rebook. Your account will still be charged the full amount of the ride.
