Jackson Hole Horseback Riding

Few activities offer as much insight into the traditions and textures of the West as horseback riding. Jackson Hole horseback rides range from one- or two-hour trail rides to half-, full- and multi-day excursions into the backcountry of the Jackson Hole area.

Dude ranches played an active role in Jackson Hole history. While many of these ranches still exist, horse communities also abound, especially on the Idaho side of the Tetons near Tetonia. In Jackson Hole, Puzzleface Ranch and Flying W Stables have larger boarding operations while the latter is the only indoor area facility of its kind. Horse properties with private arenas dot the landscape south of town and occupy much of Jackson Hole real estate, especially along the western side of town on Fish Creek and Fall Creek Roads near Wilson. The public arena at the Teton County Fair Grounds sees plenty of riders and events during the summer, including the hip-hollering rodeo.

For trail riding, it’s simply a matter of pulling out a map and exploring the Jackson Hole area. Trails extend through Grand Teton National Park including the Gros Ventre Range. The Salt, Wind River, Snake River and Wyoming Ranges are just south of Jackson Hole. The Greys River region and Star Valley are popular for trail riding and equestrian real estate. Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, Grand Targhee Resort in Idaho and Grand Teton National Park have guided operations with half and full-day trips. Private outfitters take riders just about anywhere in their respective regions. Experienced riders are able to rent horses and even trailers without a guide from places such as Western Wyoming Horseman in Alpine.
