Amazing sunset horseback ride - Awesome horseback ride at sunset that leaves from Zion Ponderosa ranch - this was convenient as we were staying on the property. Sadie and Parker were great tour guides and it was obvious they knew a lot of about the horses. They made sure we were all in good hands - the horses are awesome! This trail is also super cool - honestly a little scary at first being on a large horse on a treacherous path but it was awesome. Beautiful ride and the guides gave us lots of facts about Zion. Would definitely recommend this during your trip to Zion!!

Wonderful Ride! - Wonderful excursion for our family of teens! We were all inexperienced riders and Karlie and Jacob put us right at ease. They were very reassuring, engaging and entertaining. We learned a lot about the area as first time visitors. We would highly recommend it!

Parker is the best guide! - My experience at Ponderosa Ranch in Zion with guide Parker on the sunset horseback ride was nothing short of magical. From the stunning views of the surrounding landscape to Parker's exceptional guidance and knowledge, every moment exceeded expectations. Parker, our guide for the evening, was not only knowledgeable but also incredibly personable. His passion for the area was evident as he shared stories about the history of Zion National Park and pointed out unique things along the trail. Parker ensured that everyone in our group felt comfortable and safe throughout the ride. His expertise with horses was remarkable, making even novice riders feel at ease. The horses provided by Ponderosa Ranch were well-trained and gentle. It was evident that they were well cared for and accustomed to the terrain. Parker matched each rider with a suitable horse based on experience level, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable ride for everyone. This sunset horseback ride was undoubtedly a highlight of our trip to Zion National Park. The combination of breathtaking scenery, a knowledgeable guide like Parker, and the tranquility of being on horseback as the sun dipped below the horizon made for an unforgettable experience. I would highly recommend this excursion to anyone visiting the area, whether you're a seasoned rider or trying horseback riding for the first time. If you're looking for a memorable way to experience the beauty of Zion National Park, look no further than the sunset horseback ride at Ponderosa Ranch. With Parker's expertise and the majestic surroundings, you're guaranteed an evening you'll cherish long after the ride is over.
