Trail Rides

Book the Ride of a Lifetime!

Our scenic trail ride landscape winding through the Texas hill country has been in the family for over a century. And we’ve led thousands of visitors just like you through the wild country, encouraging you to let your hair down, connect with nature, and forget about the world for a little while.

The outdoors are waiting for you to rediscover the slower side of things. Are you in? 

Riding a horse takes you back to simpler times. Here’s why taking a trail ride through the grassy glens will gift you the benefits you’re craving. 

Relax in the outdoors

See the rolling hills through the ears of an american quarter horse and enjoy the myriad of wildflowers and plant species dotting the trail. Depending on the season, you may spot Indian Paintbrushes, Bluebonnets, or Canadian thistles, to name a few. 

Incredible Wildlife

Scan the skies, and you may just see red-tail hawks swooping between the clouds, scissor-tail flycatchers darting across the pasture, or cattle egrets gliding majestically in the wind. Look out for grazing deer in the Great Trinity woods surrounding us and squirrels hopping between great shady oaks.
No horse experience? No Problem.
Unlike other ranches, we specifically pick out what horse will best fit your personality and experience. So even if you’ve never ridden a horse before, you’ll still have an incredible time on the trail.

Learn the history behind Texas and BBR

Genuine connection with visitors is our top priority, guiding you through the open pastures and fields, all while explaining the history of the land around us. 

Our peaceful trail rides allow you to connect with your horse, feeling its steady heartbeat and power beneath you. By the time you hop onto solid ground, you’ll feel like a transformed, more confident human being.

Happy Trails and Happy Reviews!

“Visited Broken Bow Ranch for a Bachelorette Party – had an AMAZING time! The ranch, the people, the horses – we had the best time. If we ever get a chance-  we will definitely come back. Highly recommend if you want an authentic ranch experience and you love nature and animals. Special thanks to Gay Lee and Jeff!”

“My family and I truly enjoyed our time here this past weekend. We were all first time rider’s and a little nervous, but the staff made us feel welcomed and very comfortable. I enjoyed my horse Cricket, she was so gentle and calm. She made me feel at ease riding her. My son’s and grand daughter horses were just the same. Kudos to the staff/ trainers and owners for doing and excellent job. I’d also like to say a special thank you to Irvin for getting us in at the last minute. Had a great time and can’t wait to do it again!!!”

“We very much enjoyed our time last weekend riding the horses at Broken Bow Ranch! My horse Cricket was amazing! She was very calm and this was the first time I didn’t feel nervous riding a horse. My kids were able to ride their horses very comfortably as well. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. They took good care of us. We can’t wait to go back!”

“Our Broken Bow Ranch adventure was great. The ranch hands were very friendly and knowledgeable, our horse ride time was just right, plus our horses were beautiful and calm. We enjoyed a wonderful New Year’s Eve campfire dinner visiting with the ranch hands, guests, and owner. Truly a Five Star Plus experience for us and we will be returning for more rides in the future. Thank you all so much”
