The views are spectacular, the guides are well informed and concerned about your safety. A fantastic way to spend some time and "feel" the abundance of nature all around you.

Horseback riding in the Sierras. If you have kids and would like to introduce them to these great animals known as horses, why not down at Camp Richardson. The trail ride is perfect for all abilities. Still to this day when I get on these guys they make me a little nervous. What stuck out to me with Camp Richardson is their guys seemed anything but nervous with me on their backs riding them. For the money, can't beat this ride.

The trail rides are very nice and the scenic trip is exceptional. The trail guide is very talkative and make the ride fun, enjoyable, and entertaining.

We were a mixed group, ranging from experienced riders to a 1st time solo rider (age 11). The staff here was very helpful and took the time to find the appropriate mount for each person and get us arranged for the ride. The ride is pleasant, a nice trail with enough change to keep it interesting. We went on a short ride, with a new rider, but it was still fun and the guide was nice and very competent, although not very forthcoming with conversation or local info (he was a local college student on summer break, a good trailhand, not a tour guide, but that's to be expected). They have a wide range of trips, if you're looking for a nice introductory ride with some nice views, you can't go wrong.
