 Yee Haw!! If you have ever dreamed of riding horses in the Rocky Mountains, grab your hat and join us this summer for our Horse Camp Adventure Vacation at Peaceful Valley Ranch, with over 800,000 acres of riding in the Roosevelt National Forest. Share a true Western style chalet with a delightful group of like-minded women and the fabulous Women痴 Quest staff. Enjoy delicious home-cooked meals prepared on site using local organics whenever possible.
All experience levels are welcome. Our specially qualified staff will teach everything from riding basics, to grooming, to Natural Horsemanship. Rides will be individually tailored to your experience and comfort. In small, imitate groups, you値l traverse mystical trails in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, learning to handle your horse in her natural flow. Whether you currently ride or not, this will be a new experience for you.
Imagine. What would it feel like to open your heart and allow the horse to be your teacher? To go with her flow? To slow yourself down enough to become fully present? By connecting with your horse, you値l learn to become more aware of your breath, your intention, and the calm, steady power of your center. With horses as our teachers, together we値l learn to honor them and ourselves. When you leave this retreat, the first thing you値l realize is that it will never leave you. Please join us for this very special event!
What to Expect at the Horse Camp Adventure Vacation:
Wake to a purple mountain sunrise in your cozy chalet beside the St. Vrain River, and take in the peaceful outdoors from the large picture window in the main room, or mosey on out to the second floor deck overlooking our private pond. We start each day with a yoga session, to ground our bodies and minds, and prepare to encounter our horses with open hearts. Each day we値l enjoy Natural Horsemanship lessons in the indoor and outdoor arenas, becoming true partners with our horses. We値l ride every day in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, along streams, through high alpine forests and meadows full of late blooming wildflowers. Hearty gourmet meals will be prepared per our specifications in our own private dining lodge, and one evening, we値l take a hayride up to a splendid peak, and have a chuck wagon dinner overlooking the Continental Divide. We値l have plenty of free time for hiking in the surrounding natural splendor, curling up with a good book, soaking in the hot tub, swimming in the property痴 indoor pool, journaling, getting to know our new girlfriends, and indulging in facials and massage.
