Glacier Creek Stables

You can see more of the park by horseback and you'll be viewing the scenic wonders in the same way that the first settlers did long ago. Trails throughout the mountains offer tremendous views of majestic mountains, dense forests, open meadows, mountain streams and lakes.Choose from 2, 3, 5, 8 or even a 10-hour ride in the park. For a beautiful introduction to the Park, the shady two hour crosses two streams as it loops around the Glacier basin; for best wildlife viewing choose the early morning or late afternoon. To enjoy spectacular views, the three hour passes lakes and streams, climbs the moraine to give you panoramic views of the valley, Estes cone and Long's Peak; elk, deer, moose, bobcat and coyotes have been seen on this ride. Longer trips provide more in-depth views of the area and take you higher into the mountains. The 10-hour ride will take you up and over the Continental Divide via the Flat Top Mountain Trail to Grand Lake. Any ride you choose will leave you with memories you'll have forever.We recommend that you book online soon. Everyone with a confirmed scheduled ride at Glacier Creek Stables will be allowed access up bear lake road all summer.
