| At this ranch the owners Iris Behr and John Muir want to share their love for horseback riding and the great outdoors in an |
| unspoiled environment surrounded by the beauty of nature. They believe in "being one with nature" versus "overcoming |
| nature". In the spirit of this Earth philosophy, they help their guests reconnect themselves with the earth and also awaken |
| their awareness for a means to save Mother Earth. Their promise is to offer an adventure vacation with a philosophy that |
| celebrates life and generates joy and excitement. The six-day program offers activities scheduled throughout each day. You |
| can do as much or as little as you desire. Whether as exhilarating as horseback riding through the mountains or as relaxing |
| as sitting back and reading a book, the choice is yours. There are daily horseback rides, beginning to advanced centered |
| riding instructions, champagne brunch rides, all day rides, lunch rides, hay wagon rides, and barrel racing rodeos. If |
| horseback riding is not your favorite activity, there are plenty of other things for you to choose such as fishing, hiking - like |
| hikes to a gold mine and medicine trail hikes, where you learn about edible and medicinal plants, tracking and animal signs - |
| archery, trap, target and rifle shooting (additional costs), mountain biking, volley ball, a game of horseshoes or badminton, |
| swimming and nightly entertainment. If you like to get off the beaten path and into the unspoiled splendor of the country, |
| Hidden Creek Ranch is waiting for you. |
| Riding |
| At this ranch, horses, cowboys and the Western American ranching traditions are front and center in many of the activities. |
| After all, this is what ranch vacations are all about. If you want to celebrate life in a fun way that generates joy and |
| excitement you will find plenty of opportunity to do just that at Hidden Creek Ranch. |
| We start with a Horse Orientation, during which we will assign you a horse and saddle. If this horse matches your riding |
| abilities, it is yours for your stay - otherwise we will continue to fit you with a suitable mount. Once the two of you have an |
| understanding we will take a Ride that will allow you to get to know your horse and the Ranch better before our evening |
| Rides into the mountains. |
| We have a horse for every type of rider. For slow riders, we have slow horses; for fast riders, we have fast horses; for |
| those who have never ridden before, we have horses that have never been ridden before; and for those who don't like to |
| ride, we also have horses that don't like to be ridden! |
| Daily Trail Rides |
| Trail Rides are divided into small groups according to riding ability to ensure you a personal adventure every day. Trail rides |
| deep into timbered forests or in grassy meadows will take you into the mountains and our beautiful back country. You have a |
| variety of different riding levels to choose from in the mornings, up to four choices simultaneously, while afternoon rides are |
| suitable for the entire family. |
| Fast Trail Rides |
| Our Fast Rides travel through open valleys and mountain trails that have some long and level stretches where you can trot |
| and canter. This is your chance to ride all three gaits that our horses have to offer. |
| Winter Trail Rides |
| A quiet horseback ride through this sleeping landscape will slow your soul down to match winter's pace. During your stay |
| you can choose what kind of riding you would like to do. Depending on weather and snow conditions we offer scenic and |
| fast winter Trail Rides. Our Winter Trail Rides lead through forests where the trees are beautifully bent under the heavy load |
| of snow or open meadows in a winter wonderland surrounded by snow covered mountains. All of our rides are divided into |
