We had gorgeous weather for our entire visit to the Durango area. Rapp Corral came highly recommended from several local people. It was relaxing and Danny our guide was fun and very knowledgeable of the history of the area. Enjoyed our time there very much. More

Awesome for younger kids! It was a bit overpriced, and the experienced seemed a little rushed. One loop around a field, pass out presents, done. But, the kids had a blast playing in the snow with other kids and receiving presents from Santa, the ride itself they asked, that's it? More

Just a few miles south of the Durango Mountain Resort. The Rapp Corral offers winter sled rides. A 45 minute ride through the snow around lake Havilland. A wonderful experience with a great guide. More

A sleigh ride at Rapp was recommended by our hosts, Marvin & Patra, at Lightner Creek Inn. Fantastic idea! We traveled into the San Juan National Forest in a historic sleigh pulled by draft horses. Our driver was great, very informative (and actually from TX, like us) and friendly. He informed us that Rapp has trail rides during the summer... More

Sleigh rides with a family-run crew through some of the most beautiful National Forest in the area is a must for your Durango experience! More

We had a great time on our ride. It was only my daughter, myself and our guide which made for a very personalized experience. We have a bit of riding experience so we were able to do a slightly more difficult trail. Our guide did a good job of asking about our experience and tailored a great ride for us.... More

Our ride with Ann was a spectacular experience. For those hearty individuals who enjoy horse back riding into incredible mt scenery, this is the ride for you. This is not an amusement ride, it's the real deal that was expertly handled by Ann and her well trained horses. I highly recommend this adventure with Rapp Corral. Go enjoy the horses,... More

Thank you, Rapp Corral, for a perfect Birthday celebration for our 9-year-old twin boys. They and two of their friends went on your cave ride as a birthday present, and had a magical day. The cave expedition was a surprise for our boys, and was met with wide-eyed wonder the whole hike and ride. The hike was a perfect horse-ride... More

Made reservations ahead for the cave ride with my wife. It was a beautiful day with good and calm horses. Staff was great. A nice chance for a short ride through the forest. Wear good shoes for the short hike/cave portion of the ride. More

We just finished a one hour trail ride with Sara and had a great time. Our sons (ages 6 & 9 with minimal riding experience) had a blast, as did we. Helmets were provided for the kids, and the horses were well trained and fun to ride. She gave the kids just the right amount of independence but kept them... More
