Spring Horseback Riding
As the snow melts and the Rockies burst into bloom and birdsongs fill the air, spring at C Lazy U Ranch offers a serene and picturesque setting for horseback riding…and mud. Lots of mud.
The ranch horses are some of our most valued staff members so the wranglers choose the trail with the best conditions for each ride. Our spring rides are designed to be leisurely, walk-only excursions that allow you to fully immerse yourself in the rejuvenating beauty of nature. Meander along lush, green trails as wildflowers bloom and wildlife awakens from its winter slumber.
In addition to these tranquil rides, spring is also a season of vibrant activity at the ranch, with several horse-assisted wellness events that celebrate the spirit of horses and humans alike.
Fall Horseback Riding
Fall at C Lazy U Ranch is a season of breathtaking beauty and exhilarating rides. As the leaves turn to rich hues of yellow, orange, and gold, the trails transform into a stunning tapestry of autumn colors.
Our fall rides are mostly walk-only, however conditions may offer the opportunity to enjoy both walk and trot rides. Adults-Only events include lope rides if the trails are safe for this speed.
This season is also brimming with special horse events that showcase the skills and talents of both our guests and equine friends. Whether you’re participating in a Julie Goodnight clinic or simply enjoying a scenic trot through the crisp, fall air, the ranch provides a perfect blend of relaxation and activity amidst the splendor of autumn.

In the colder months – which includes Spring Break in March – we head out onto the magical, snow-coated trails daily. We stick to the trails closer to the ranch during winter, and make sure everyone is comfortable and warm on their horse.
