Amazing time. I couldn't believe it was just 25 minutes from the Las Vegas strip. Everything about this experience was perfect in my book. I chose the sunset trail ride and western BBQ. It's such an awesome deal. Shuttle ride from and to major casinos, sunset horse riding, delicious 16 oz ribeye steak cooked to perfection, and s'mores. I honestly didn't have high hopes for the food, but it was delicious and everything was made in house. Tyree, our guide, was friendly, personable, and a comedian throughout the whole experience. The 3 wranglers were also super friendly and they made everything enjoyable. The canyons truly look beautiful and surreal, it was refreshing to take it all in and not being on my phone. It's something everyone should experience at least once. After we were done riding, we ate, gathered around the fire pit, made s'mores, and had some more laughs with everyone and Tyree. I will definitely be back! read more

Great time in the beautiful Red Rock Canyon. Ranglers put our safety first and I appreciate that. My precious Red couldn't have been a sweeter girl and my husband was paired with Prince who was a perfect horse for him. Great desert/canyon scenery and awesome to get a different look at the area away from the strip. Going to go back and bring our fam for the sunset ride and bbq. read more

Cowboy Trail Rides - Perfect ride with Prince and Red. - Horseback Riding Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

I did the Cowboy Trail Ride with my bestie last Saturday, and honestly... this was exactly the kind of Vegas experience I didn't know I needed. We got rained on a little bit, but we came prepared with our cowboy hats, cowboy boots, and rain jackets -- and it made the whole thing feel even more authentic and fun. The staff was incredible from start to finish. Super friendly, super attentive, and so patient. Once you're on your horse, you don't get off until the very end, but the wranglers made sure we had everything we needed. We even took a little break, and they went around using everyone's own phone to snap the cutest pictures for us -- honestly, such a thoughtful touch. And I can't forget my horse, Millie. She was a little rebel, and I loved her immediately because... same. She had personality, and that made the ride even better. If you're in Las Vegas and you're not in the mood for the Strip, please do this ride. There is so much more to Vegas than casinos and clubs, and this trail ride proves it. The views, the vibes, the staff -- everything was amazing. I'd 100% do it again. Highly recommend! read more

My first and second experiences were basically opposite. My first time riding with them was par excellent, the staff was great, patient, friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and so on. The ride was peaceful, calming, informative, and worth repeating; which is why I returned for another ride my next stay in town. My second ride, The horses were still endearing and the beautiful scenery still ever present, and there was one nice gentleman on the grounds who was pleasant to interact with. However, outside of him, the other staff were unwelcoming, unpleasant, brash/dry, and lackluster regarding information. Had it been my first experience, I may not have returned. So, ultimately, my first ride garners 5 stars; and my second ride, 3; for an average of 4 stars. I will probably ride with them at least one more time, in hopes that the second experience was an off day. read more

Cowboy Trail Rides in Summerlin made my daughter's cowgirl themed birthday epic! The horseback ride through Red Rock Canyon was stunning, with calm horses and mules and friendly guides who shared cool facts. The only complaint (if you wanna call it that) is that I would've preferred horses, no mules. The sunset views were unreal. Just a peaceful experience. It got a bit chilly at night (May) but besides that, perfect! The post-ride BBQ dinner--juicy steaks, chicken, and sides--was delicious (and huge portions), and roasting s'mores by the campfire was the perfect touch. This horseback riding was a bit more expensive than many of the others, but I don't regret choosing this on at all. For ~$200, including horseback ride, meal, and the s'mores, this 5-hour adventure was a steal. Highly recommend especially for a memorable birthday! read more

Trail guide Orion was professional and courteous. Highly recommend him. Answered questions and calmed the anxious riders. Made you feel welcome. Most guides did. Now don't expect to be in charge of the horse (or mule), and don't wear spurs or the young lady head wrangler with the braids will put you in the classroom corner! Ha. read more

Are you an adventure seeker? Need some outdoor thrill after spending your hard earned cash at the casinos? Then head on over to Cowboy Trail Rides for an unforgettable experience!! This guided horseback riding tour takes you through a magnificent dessert in the canyon giving you a taste of the wild Wild West. It's perfect for experienced riders and novices, and they provide you with adventure and a horse that's right for you. I got paired with a lovely horse named Sunny! A vibrant and independent one just like me! She took the lead. She made me feel so comfortable and needed no direction at all. I just let her do her thing as we rode through the trail. It was an amazing 2 hour ride through the canyon with some rocky terrain and some breathtaking views of the mountain tops. I really did feel like I was in the wild Wild West. Tours start in the morning all the way until sundown. We went during lunch and it was scorching hot but it was so worth it. Booking the tour was a cinch. Just go online or you can call and speak to the owner directly. They do honor military discounts so you should mention that when booking the tour. Cowboy Trail Rides is an experience you don't want to skip out on when you're visiting Las Vegas. You get adventure, the great outdoors, killer views, and memories added to your bucket list! read more

After reading Yelp pal Jenni M.'s review I knew this would be the perfect outing for my horse-crazy friend and I while on a short Vegas vacation. It's about a 40 minute drive from the Strip, out in Red Rock Canyon, a beautiful landscape to enjoy a trail ride. We made reservations online, which is absolutely necessary, and drove out to the ranch at the requested time for the Coyote Canyon ride. They have everyone sign a waiver and then put on a helmet (optional) plus put anything they want to carry into a small saddle bag (make sure you bring a camera or phone for photos). We rode in March so the weather was cool but you might want to bring water and sun protection if you go during the hot summer months. After some preliminary instructions you're assigned a horse or mule and then you're off! This specific ride lasted a little over an hour. It's is a perfect ride for those who are inexperienced on horseback (or in my case, those who haven't ridden in many years). The horses pretty much follow one another; they've traveled these paths many times so pretty much just go on their own. The cowboys and cowgirls who journey with the group are very helpful although some are more personable than others. This is a fun diversion if you're spending time in noisy casinos and crave the subtle sounds of nature or if you are just after a relaxed outdoor activity that involves sitting in a saddle. read more

This was just an awesome experience all around. First when you get there the "cowboys" and "cowgirl" were so friendly. I am hard of hearing and they said it wouldn't be an issue and it wasn't. Mind you I couldn't hear when they were telling the others on the trail information about Red Rock Canyon or anything, but I was completely content with the silence and just took everything in. The ride was peaceful and beautiful, I joined the sunset ride and it was gorgeous . When I did talk to the cowboys and girl they were completely knowledgeable. She picked the horses for everyone and did an amazing job. I got Tyke and he is so sweet and such a great horse. Loved every minute of the ride. After we had a great meal, prepared by a cook. I'm a vegetarian and they had a veggie meal for me, they even made vegetarian baked beans. It was delicious!!!! I asked others who had the steak, chicken or fish and they all really enjoyed the food too. It's huge portions y'all, so come hungry. We finished the night around the campfire, made s'mores and got to chat and get to know the travelers a bit. Overall I had an AMAZING experience. I'd recommend Cowboy Trail Rides to anyone that wants to have a beautiful horseback riding experiences at sunset and a great meal. read more

This was such a great experience with Denise and Dylan as our tour guides. Being allergic to both cats and dogs I certainly did not grow up around animals - much less horses. At 5 foot one and trying to avoid use of the step up ladder to get on my horse was interesting lol and the staff was so patient and friendly about it. I have never been this close to a horse, so I did not realize just how large of an animal it is. Before pairing you with the horse the question is asked if anyone is nervous, and I immediately shot my hand up and was paired with the lovely Soko. Starting off on the mountains I was certainly nervous because there are small rocks there are large rocks and just all this unstable ground (I mean it's mountains). Denise could obviously sense my nerves were on edge and let me know that the horses basically know their way around and are so familiar with the trail that I had nothing to worry about and when I allowed myself to relax, I realized she was absolutely right. During our journey, I was able to ask a lot of questions about our surroundings, as well as all the unexpected flowers that I saw, and Denise was able to answer every question and identify every flower. What a great experience! read more

If I could give this 100 stars, I would. We impulsively booked our trail ride without really knowing what to expect and it ended up being the highlight of our entire trip! I visited Vegas in February for my 21st birthday, and I'm writing this review five months later because I still think about this experience almost every day. I've recommended Cowboy Trail Rides to everyone who asked about my trip and even to people who didn't (Lol). We did the sunset trail ride, and not only was the ride itself incredible, but the food was amazing too. The steaks were practically bigger than the plate! Every staff member we interacted with was friendly and personable. The views during the ride were absolutely breathtaking, and I loved that they took selfies of us on the horses. The tour guide wasn't bad to look at either. The shuttle to and from the ranch, the full dinner, and the trail ride were all included for just $200--which I thought was an amazing value. Considering we were gone for nearly five hours, we definitely would've spent more than that elsewhere. This was hands-down the best part of our trip, and I'll absolutely be coming back the next time I'm in Vegas. 100/10 experience. The tourguide read more

Literally the best horseback riding experience I've ever had and I've done 2 others. I actually can't wait to do this again! It starts at a good time, around 9am. Everyone there is so sweet and so helpful. They really care about your safety too. Also side note, they have rules and I thought my phone chain was okay to wear for the ride but you literally can't so they provide a bag for the saddle so that was a bummer cuz it isn't easy taking it out of the saddle. But the view was spectacular and amazing. They even have a photo opp at some point where they take pics of you and your group which was so nice! . The ride was long so it was worth it and weather was perfect on this day! My horse's name was VEGAS . Thank you for such a wonderful and amazing experience for my birthday read more

This was some GREAT FUN!! Knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive staff. These wranglers are very good at what they do, and they listen to you and pay attention to their surroundings at all times. This is a ride with mules and due to the terrain; What a great choice of animal. Mules are very smart and the most surefooted, and can carry more weight than a horse. The terrain was very pretty and not just a flat surface throughout the entirety of the trip. Which was very nice and I really appreciated it. All levels can do this experience, I have quite a bit of experience with horses and riding so for me this was cake. They offer helmets to those who want the extra comfort and safety. But they are not required. What ever you do remember to tip your wranglers! I personally would have loved to have gone for a couple more hours. But I understand that with the level of experience between some riders and cost this was well worth it. I took my daughter but there were full families as well as solo riders. Great experience! read more

*** "Move 'em on, head 'em up / Head 'em up, move 'em on / Move 'em on, head 'em up..." *** If you knew those were the lyrics to the theme song to the 1960s TV show "Rawhide," then we could very well be friends. OVERALL Cowboy Trail Rides just outside of Las Vegas, Nevada, strikes me as a fantastic place for first-time and inexperienced riders to fulfill their desire for horseback life. My in-laws took my girls and me there on June 8, 2021 for a 11AM trip. ENVIRONMENT Remember, this dusty, hot area is Red Rock Canyon. In June, the (temperature) high is in the upper 90s to low 100s. There's plenty of heat and desert to go around. If you get allergies, don't forget to Flonase before checking in. SERVICE The wranglers seemed to all be on the same page about things. Some a bit more communicative to riders than others. If you have an issue or something doesn't seem right, just holler out to them. MY FAVORITE PART... The Coyote Canyon Ride. It's approximately an hour long. Ours was a bit longer, but for $69 per person, I found the experience to be of great value. And not having to wear a COVID-19 mask was great! Two guys showed up with theirs on and quickly learned that breathing while on horseback was a necessity. NOT SO FAVORITE PART... This place is not without its faults, however, there was nothing that would hold me back from partaking in this adventure again. Not even with our two timid first-time youth riders (ages 7 & 8). Ride 'em, cowgirls! THE RIDE I hadn't ridden a horse since I sold mine when I was a teenager. The scenic Coyote Canyon ride was more moderate than my mother-in-law had described to me. Later she confessed that it was much more advanced than she was told and she might not have put our young ones through it if she had known, but... they loved it! Our girls still talk about the horses they were assigned, telling me things like I hope they are being taken care of and that they wish they could have given theirs a shiny red apple. My oldest got "Blue" - a blue roan currently with his own profile on their website. She was head over heels for him by the end of the ride. My younger daughter rode Mustang Sally, a red roan. My mother-in-law was assigned Red, a mule. I also was assigned a mule... his name was Rascal. Lmao. He was my kind of guy... Path of least resistance... Head-butting my daughters' horses when they slowed down too much... Not wanting to stop when the lazy horses wanted to nibble on the landscape... Lol. Mules are great, steady-stepping workers. Give Rascal a carrot or ten, please. LITTLE YELPER'S CLUB Children 7 and older are allowed on the tours. Ages 7-16 are required to wear a riding helmet which they do supply. The smiles on both of our girls' faces was priceless. I go to bed thinking about it. PARKING You'll see a large corral near the highway, but don't stop there. Even cars can manage the road up to and park near the horseback rides area. Clean flushing toliet restrooms are near the stables where you'll be lined up for your assignment. TIPS Wear good sunscreen, jeans, and closed-toe shoes. A nice-fitting hat because it gets windy in the canyons. Bring a small water bottle, sunglasses, and your mobile phone or small camera... you can put them in the saddle bag that you may borrow since bags of ANY kind are not allowed. The wranglers will stop to take photos of your group. | One-Hour Ride: 5 | Service: 5 | Environment: 5 | Price: 5 | Sources: https://www.lyricsondemand.com/tvthemes/rawhidelyrics.html https://www.cowboytrailrides.com/horses IG: @ctr_las_vegas read more

What a great place to ride. As a horse owner and avid rider, I enjoy riding while vacationing. The views were beautiful and the horses were all well mannered and great for any level of riding. The wranglers were professional and helpful to the people who needed it. The ride was a nice relaxed pace so you could take in all the scenery!! Drive thru the gates and down to the barn! ALSO*** Please remember to TIP a your wranglers! That's how they make their money and Legit no one on our group tipped! 10$ at least! per wrangler for the short rides and I would go 20$ for the longer one. Being as someone who did this before that's what I felt was fair each ride. read more

Really enjoyed my experience here! The horses and mules are taken well care of. They have a group 1 and group 2 of horses and mules there they rotate so they can rest for a day in between riders. The staff were great, friendly, and helpful and even patient for those that have not ridden a horse before. They address all concerns if any before they assign you your horse/mule. The sunset view is breath taking as you ride near red rock valley. We went on a cold day and would suggest bringing water if you rode on a hot summer day. I can only imagine it gets very hot. The dinner was delicious and well proportionate. The s'mores were also great on that cold day. Don't forget to take your horse selfie. Highly recommend! read more

Went on the Sunset trail ride with BBQ! I highly recommend it. Temps are 5 or 10 degrees Fahrenheit cooler in the evening than in Vegas. Dress appropriately before you get on the horse, as you have to stop the whole ride to put on a warmer shirt. The staff here are amazing! From the chef to the wranglers! It was suggested to either go on the morning or evening rides as it gets extremely warm during the mid day. read more

My husband and I were hiking the Cowboy Trails when I had a cardiac event. Being too weak and dizzy to walk, 911 sent the rescue teams. Also, Mike Flood, the ranch manager, rode a mule up and brought another mule to help me. Cadillac and Ruby! My first heart problem, first mule ride, first ambulance! While riding down on Ruby, just looking at her big beautiful ears made me happy. I'll be forever grateful for their help. If you get a chance to ride the Cowboy trails, you'll be in excellent hands! We're also going to enjoy a real trail ride soon! read more

We booked the 2hr morning ride and had a fantastic time! All the wranglers were great but I want to call out Ally who was so personable and funny! She gave us the run down on safety and she was the leader of the pack of our ride. She was absolutely great with everyone and especially with the little ones. The ride will stop for a photo op where the wranglers will gather all the members in your party and take a photo with your camera or phone. After the photos, you start your ride ascending to 6,000 feet. The equines all follow one single line and walk at a good pace. The equines were all gentle and listened well, we had absolutely no problems! It did get cold and windy on our ride but it is November so to be expected. Make sure to layer up and bring a hat and gloves for the winter months. Enjoy the beautiful scenery and wonderful experience. Will recommend to all my friends and family. read more

Phenomenal! A Must-Do in Vegas. I booked a horseback ride at Cowboy Trail Rides in Las Vegas, NV. We did the morning ride; the weather was perfect! Since the ride is in January, I wore layered clothing and a hat, packed snacks, a bottled water to sip, and sunscreen...a must! After a quick orientation (waivers, horse bags, helmet if needed, training, and last chance to use the clean restrooms) the group was introduced to the horses and got to get a feel as to which horse would be a good fit. Mustang Sally took to me. We started to climb the rugged canyon rim with magnificent landscapes along the steep Fossil Ridge. The horses are sure-footed, and the knowledgeable staff gave tons of advice to the riders. We took the 2-hour ride, it was the perfect amount of time for us and included a photo stop at one of the beautiful sceneries at the rim of the Calico Basin. A special shout out to Cowgirl Aleyana & Cowgirl Jordan (formerly from Oahu). They were thoughtful, caring, funny and made sure we knew what we were doing once we got on the horses. The whole process from the reservation, the shuttle, meeting our horses and riding out into the desert was easy, pleasant, and memorable. Thank you so much for making this experience one that will last a lifetime! Lastly, a special shout out to our shuttle driver Dave who provided us with a complimentary ride to and from the ranch. The shuttle pick-up time was 8:10am and we returned to the city at 12:30pm. Be sure to tip your trail guides well after the ride and the driver too. Recommend cash tip since we couldn't get good signal to use a cash app. read more

What a great excursion off the strip! We had great tour guides Koa and Logan. We did the sunset ride and BBQ dinner. I was a little worried about my ability to keep the horse on the trail but the guides were throughly explained what to do if the horse/mule take a turn or stops. We rode almost 4 miles and then returned to the ranch for a huge COWBOY steak, beans, corn and potatoes! I couldn't eat it all! I would definitely recommend to my friend and family. read more

What a great night! It was so much fun! The dinner was so good too. My horse was Mustang Sally, who was sassy, liked to take her time, and eat snacks while walking (sounds like me!). My husband rode big John, who kept trying to make Sally walk faster but she refused. It was my husband's first time on a horse. Our guides Orin and Kat was awesome, told stories on the trail and it told me they enjoy what they do. After dinner, we did Cowboy smores. It was beautiful and fun and 30 mins from my house. Highly recommend! (No horseback riding experience needed and they have helmets if you want to wear one). Tip - bring a jacket in the cooler months. Even if it's 80 during the days, the desert gets cold at nights. And TIP YOUR STAFF! The chef and wranglers deserve tips so bring some cash! read more

We had a lovely ride with the Red Rock Canyon in the backdrop. It was a very peaceful ride - though our guide was not informative. She did, however, take pictures for us. So if you're looking for close to complete silence - this is for you. I gave our experience a 3 instead of a 4 because we paid for a Noon departure, 90 minute ride but the guide started us at 11:51am and finished us at 12:57pm. So just over a 60 minute ride. That was disappointing since we booked the longer ride and didn't get it. read more

This trail ride is without a doubt the best for adults and children.
