Take A Ride On The Gentle Side

Take A Ride On The Gentle Side

If you are looking for a relaxing way to see more of the ‘Dacks back country, we can highly recommend Circle B Ranch, the experts in trial rides for all ages and abilities. And this year Circle B has introduced “The Lonesome Dove Picnic Ride," a three hour trail ride through rolling hills and the forestry of the ‘Dacks.  From Circle B:

“The scenery and experience is very special as you travel off the beaten path to the back country surrounding Circle B Ranch. Guests will enjoy about a one hour horseback ride from the starting point. Your guides will pack the lunches or snacks you have brought to be enjoyed at a secluded, tranquil area overlooking a lovely stream.   At this spot you will have time to relax and take in the beautiful, untouched surroundings or perhaps chat with your trail ride companions.  The choice is yours.
