In my opinion, the best way to do that is to take a nice trail ride with some real live cowboys-and that's just what we did! Booking online is easy and the follow up instructions are clear with perfect map instructions to arrive at the meet up location. I got a few text reminders too. Chase and Jake were our guides and they did a wonderful job of making us feel comfortable. The horses, Junior and Sugar, were well trained and fun to ride. I appreciate that our trail was not just flat-we got to go up and down hills a bit to get the full effect. I felt like a real cowgirl! ;-) They were telling us that in the summer, they do rides up in Pine Valley, which is an entirely different landscape. I'd love to come back and give that a try!

Absolutely beautiful experience. We went on the 1.5 hour sunset ride and it was worth every penny…read more They were so nice and helpful during the whole ride. Definitely a must-try when visiting Utah

We have taken our young kids (at age 7) on these rides and they take great care of them, letting them ride alone, but guiding with the rope.

This is an experience you won't soon forget, and one that anybody can do! What are you waiting for? Booking our reservations was painless. I made a phone call and spoke with Patty, who gave me a few options of times for our ride. We had a group of three-two adults and a teenager. (On the day of the ride, we we met another group of three that joined us.) She gave me instructions on where to go on the day of our ride, and sent them again via text with GPS coordinates so we could easily meet our guide. Mike, our guide, was fantastic. He was friendly, took some time up front to give us a quick orientation and then asked each of us about our horse riding experience so he could match us up with an appropriate horse. He was patient with us, as some of us had very little experience. The trail itself was not all the way flat, but not so challenging that a novice rider would struggle. There are a few areas where we went up hill and then a few where we went down. Mike advised us on proper posture to make it easier on the horse as we navigated some of that hilly terrain. At one point, he recognized that the teen in the group was getting a little frustrated with his horse. He gave him some instruction and then engaged him in conversation about music-something they had in common. I appreciated that Mike was able to include everyone in the group in some way. He's a good dude. After the ride, we were given some carrots to feed our horses. I loved that part! I think the horses appreciated it too. This may not be an activity that we will do every time we visit St. George, but it will definitely be on that we remember forever and bring along some friends to show them the beauty of Snow Canyon from a different perspective.

I begged my mom for lessons growing up, but she couldn't afford them. However, she signed me up for a couple of trail rides and they're a core memory. Two decades later and my affinity for horses hasn't wavered, mostly because I moved to Saint George--a town where I'm surrounded by these gentle giants in every direction I go. Naturally, my 5-year-old daughter loves horses too and wanted to take lessons. I took her to a different facility that showed a bunch of red flags, so we didn't go back there. Then, I found Shauna at Haskell Riding Academy and instantly clicked with her when we met. What started as an inquiry for my daughter ended up with me taking lessons instead. I started riding with Shauna two months ago and it has quickly become my favorite form of therapy. My stress instantly turns to stillness at the stable gates. Anyone can benefit from being in the presence of these sensitive souls--they're very healing beings. I highly recommend getting lessons with Shauna. Learning a new skill as an adult can be intimidating, but she's very patient, kind, and knowledgeable. I really appreciate how particular she is about doing things. She'll always explain why she does it a certain way, and it always makes perfect sense. There's a reason her horses age gracefully, like Tag who I've been riding. He's in such great shape, I would have never guessed he's 29! Also, some of her horses have blue eyes/pink skin and they wear protective masks to reduce their risk of cancer. These are just a couple testaments to how much she loves and cares for her horses. Here's a photo of me and my daughter, Shauna let her join me at the end of my lesson. It was such a nice surprise, my daughter loved it. I'm looking forward to growing as a rider and can't wait for my daughter to start riding when she's a bit older. I know she'll be in good hands with Shauna!
