Highlights
  • Sinclair - The weight limit for this activity is strict at 220lbs.

First, we will climb into the saddle at the stables and conduct a brief riding lesson for the inexperienced riders. No need to worry if you are a beginner, we have years of experience and reserve the best trained horses for our guests.

In fall and winter months, be prepared for cold weather! Make sure you bring hats, gloves, coats, etc. to keep you warm while you enjoy the tour.

Following this introduction the ride will continue toward the mouth of a slot canyon. After about 20 minutes, riders will dismount and have the opportunity to continue up the canyon on foot as it gets too narrow for the horses to continue. The canyon continues, with several small obstacles to maneuver past. Eventually, the tour will return back to the stables on horseback.

Additional Information

This excursion merges two of the most well-liked activities in Southern Utah: discovery of picturesque slot canyons and equestrian adventures. There’s no other tour in Southern Utah that presents the opportunity to simultaneously enjoy these thrilling affairs!

Zion National Park is renowned for its stunning Slot Canyons. They’re a magnet for photographers and explorers who are perpetually on the lookout for such awe-inspiring geological features. This off-the-beaten-path canyon, though as aesthetically pleasing as the rest of Zion, is much less crowded. Plus, the entire journey is conducted on horseback!

  • Must be under 220lbs

Great ride - Tucker and Karlie took us for the ride. They were really knowledgeable and shared with us many things. The horses were lovely. It was a good pace ride. We were brought to the foot of this canyon that kinda resembles Antelope Canyon except without the people. It was perfect. Tucker took great photos for us too. Really enjoyed it.

First time riding horseback! - This was a great, quick tour and the BEST way to introduce my boys to horseback riding for the first time. We had so much fun leading our horses along the beautiful, scenic mountain trail and learning about the wildlife in the area. Jacob was a knowledgeable tour guide and able to answer all of our questions about the care and keeping of horses. We had the best time pretending to be cowboys for the morning!

Honeymoon horseback sunset 12/10 - We took the sunset horseback tour while on our honeymoon/first year anniversary. Amy was our guide and we absolutely lucked out with her!! She was so laid back, but experienced, which fit our style completely. She made us feel at ease from the get go, especially for someone (my husband) who has never ridden a horse before! Amy was such a blast with her trivia questions, random facts, and dad jokes, and we can tell she truly loves what she does. The horses were rockstars, too! LeDoux was such a character - tongue out and crop dusting the entire trip 🤣 we highly recommend this tour; request Amy if you can!!

Experience the thrill of horseback riding! - Parker and Dustin provided an amazing horseback riding experience in Orderville, Utah. They were both knowledgeable and fun tour guides who made the ride enjoyable. I was initially nervous about being on a horse, but Parker's reassurance helped me relax and enjoy the rest of the ride. Thank you both for a fantastic experience!

Kind horses, knowledgeable & helpful Wranglers and Beautiful scenery!! - Wranglers were awesome and so kind and helpful. We were a couple plus another family of 6. They gave great attention to all 8 of us. The horses were gentle and kind; we learned about the horses the young men wranglers- Travis and Dustin; about the rocks, the watershed, slot canyons, monsoon rains and flash floods (which didn’t occur but we learned all about them). The scenery is soooo beautiful. The wranglers took awesome group and couple photos. It’s well worth the time if horseback riding is not your normal activity- this is so worth it!

Worth it! - My husband and I did this during our honeymoon and it was great! Sadie and Jacob were nice and very helpful. It was definitely worth the price and we really enjoyed our time. You don’t need experience with horses either! Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for something to do in Zion.
