Wild At Heart Horse Rides offers a selection of private and guided horseback experiences designed to connect riders with mountain scenery and quiet trails. The operator features six distinct trips: 1.5 Hour Private Ride, All Day Mountain Picnic PRIVATE Ride, 2 Hour Private Ride, 2 Hour Alpine Meadow Ride, 1.5 Hour Beginner Ride, and 3 Hour Private Ride. Each named trip specifies duration or focus to help riders choose the right experience for their schedule and skill level. The 1.5 Hour Beginner Ride explicitly provides a serene, guided 1.5-hour route that passes along Beaver Creek and past ponds, with opportunities to see wildlife such as river otters and blue herons. That beginner option runs in an intimate group setting of just 5–6 guests. Other offerings include private rides at multiple durations and a dedicated 2 Hour Alpine Meadow Ride for riders seeking meadow scenery, plus an All Day Mountain Picnic PRIVATE Ride for extended mountain time. Wild At Heart Horse Rides emphasizes private-ride options and clear, duration-based trip choices so visitors can select rides by length and setting. The combination of private rides, an alpine meadow experience, and a beginner-specific guided route with small-group size supports a reliable, approachable horseback program for riders seeking scenic, managed trail time on horseback. Bookings and specific logistics (meeting points, exact trail details, age and weight policies) are provided by the business at reservation time; prospective guests should consult the operator for availability and any requirements.
