Go Horseback Riding
Bryce Canyon National Park
Horseback riding is a great way to slow down and experience Bryce Canyon National Park. Horses have been used to explore Bryce Canyon National Park since before it was set aside for federal protection. To support this activity, the National Park Service completed 4.5 miles of foot and horse trails in 1931 that are still in use today.
Guided Trail Rides Want to get a different perspective of Bryce Canyon, check it out from the back of a horse. Canyon Trail Rides, the park's concessioner, offers 2-hour and 3-hour guided horse and mule rides into the Bryce Amphitheater along a dedicated horse trail and the Peek-a-boo Loop Trail. Guided trail rides typically begin in April and run until October 31st, depending on weather. For information, visit their web site or call them directly at 1(435) 834-5500. Bring Your Own Horse or Mule The use of privately-owned stock on the trails of Bryce Canyon is permitted in certain areas and at specific times. Stock is defined as horse and mules. Llamas and goats are prohibited. For information on scheduling a private horse or mule ride, the park's private stock regulations, and more, visit the Bryce Canyon Horseback Riding & Stock Use page.
