Bitterroot Ranch Horses

The horses are rounded up early each morning and
brought into the ranch corral.

Dude Ranch with a Unique Equine Focus

Life at the Bitterroot revolves around our horses. Their selection, breeding, training and care are of paramount importance and consume most of our energy throughout the year so that we can offer you the best possible riding vacation. Many of the horses have been born on the ranch. They socialize naturally in a herd environment and are released every afternoon to roam in a large pasture until they are gathered the next morning.

Your horses are responsive and attentive to the rider. They are more like private horses, not what one would expect on a dude ranch.

I’ve changed my preconceptions of Arabs – your Arabs are so lovely by disposition.
