About
Welcome to Thurston Farms. We are a short and beautiful drive about 50 minutes north of Park City and 25 miles from Ogden. Come enjoy an' old fashion Sleigh or Wagon ride with us. We use home-grown, born and raised on the ranch Clydesdales. We also do all the training of the Clydesdales on the ranch. Our family has been raising and training them for over 85 years. Over the years, we have sold some of our Clydesdales to Budweiser's to be used on their west coast hitch. The ride will take you along the beautiful Weber river. We will stop by the river and enjoy the sounds of the river. Something about listening to the running of the water that helps remove the stresses of the day. On occasion, we have seen mule deer, bald eagles, golden eagles, wild turkeys, and ducks. Come enjoy a few minutes and enjoy a time when life was much slower. Wrap up in one of the provided blankets. Enjoy the sound of the bells on the team and enjoy the peace and quiet of the outdoors.
