“…Your horses are perhaps the best we have seen in a pack trip operation. The experience of going on daily trips into the wilderness is unlike anything
we have in Germany …” Nick Gross

We raise and train most of our own horses at Swan Mountain Ranch. The majority are registered Paint and Quarter Horses. Our horses have “get-up-and-go” personalities, big muscles and savvy, mountain trail experience. Think of them as elite athletes! We breed for disposition and the athletic ability necessary for mountain trail riding. We also use mules for our pack trips.
On the first day of your hunt or summer fishing and pack trip, you will receive a lesson in the basics of horsemanship. Your safety and well being is our primary concern, so instruction will be not only in riding skills, but also in the specifics of wilderness riding precautions.
Whether novice or experienced rider, we will match you with a horse which suits your skill level and temperament to ensure that you have the best possible horseback riding adventure with us.
