City Slickers: The Dream Getaway?

 

You kind of want to go camping, but you get bored. You kind of want to do something you've never done before, but you aren't sure what can give you that feeling of being outdoors and accomplishing an unexpected goal. 

A dude ranch might be your answer!

They aren't all like City Slickers. Some ranches can be found in places like Sonoita, Arizona where it's wine country. Others, offer things like yoga and fishing. And for those who want to get on a horse and learn some mad skills, they are aplenty!

Stagecoach Trails has a variety of ranch activities besides horseback riding available throughout your stay. You can rent ATV’s, learn barrel racing, go mountain biking, try cowboy action shooting at our gun range, do some archery, hiking, overnight pack trips and even ride in an authentic Stagecoach! You can choose to be in all of them, some of them, or none of them at all! That is entirely up to you! Many of our guests find that when they come to the ranch their favorite activity when not horseback riding or eating our home-cooked meals, quickly becomes just good old relaxation.

Majestic Dude Ranch in Mancos, Colorado

Guided horseback and mountain bike rides on 2 million acres of the most beautiful land on earth, summit a 13,000 plus mountain peak and fly-fish for a trophy size rainbow trout. Try your hand at our archery range, clay pigeon shooting and a paintball and laser tag course. Tackle our rope challenge course for team building/family bonding. At night, you can watch a movie under the stars with fresh made popcorn, sing karaoke, dance, ATV games, swap stories and roast s’mores.

This kind of a getaway is about wide open spaces and no streetlights, quiet at night, being near nature and animals, ponds and meadows, and amazing sunrises and sunsets worth racing outside to admire the 180-degree view of the sky. 

There is no need for a gym to exercise. The food is amazing and perfect after a long day of activities. The air is super clean. And a person can get a real perspective on life and the value of peace.
