We had a beautiful ride! I appreciated that safety came first. We were outfitted with helmets and a Hit-Air vest (it's like an airbag for your chest in case of an accidental dismount) The horses, Ty and Maverick, were sure footed and easy going. The ride was all within the forest and along the river, no open meadows. We sometimes shared the trail with some walkers their dogs. Along with the geographic history of the river and lava flows, we were treated to river views that went from rapids to calm. If you love horses and nature, I highly recommend Wilderness Horse Adventures!

A very nice ride alongside the Deschutes and through the pine forest. Vinnie (owner, guide) is outgoing, safety conscious, and focused on making sure all the riders are having a good time. The horses seem very well cared for.

I had a couple of days to myself and chose to wander down the river on horseback for 2 hours. It was absolutely wonderful! Vinnie is a caring guide. Maverick my horse was a confident mount. I hadn't ridden in a very long time. Was a very relaxing nature tour.

My son and I surprised my wife with a 2.5 hour trail ride along the Deschutes River for her birthday. It was a perfect day and such a wonderful experience! Sharyn and Vinnie were both so friendly and professional and the horses; Tye and Maverick were so sweet and beautiful. Sharyn's knowledge of the area made the experience even more memorable! My wife is still raving about how special and unforgettable the experience was! We are definately coming back! Thank you so much!

Very good horses! Well trained and responsive.
We road a trail along the River 90% of the time completely
surrounded by pine tree forest. Wonderful!

Beautiful horseback ride I would recommend but I had a horse that was not fed full breakfast so he was not too happy on my horseback ride so there was a lot more go and stop constantly with my horse good thing I was experience he did Gallup a lot but the guy did let me know in advance that he would do that and he was not as steady as the other horse on my ride as in keeping up I would recommend this tour the guide is very nice but I would have been happier with a horse that was not so wild

Hi Shayna we appreciate your view on your experience. We love that you ventured out on our ride along the Deschutes River.
We want to assure you and all our clients that your horse was never at a gallop as that is a gate professional horses do at the races however your horse may have trotted for a few moments to catch up to its friends. Experiencing a trot for the first time can be exciting for some and for others feel like a strange experience. But you did amazing and smiled the whole time.
We do assure all our clients that our horses are fully fed and well cared for as well as fully trained. To a beginner rider any movement of the horse can feel overwhelming however this is very subjective to the individual rider.
For your level of experience you did amazing and we could see you really bonding and learning on your journey.
Thanks for riding with us!

I had a wonderful ride through the high desert and saw some amazing rapids and high water on the river. The horseman was great and so knowledgable about the area. Thanks again. 5 stars.

I am interesting in booking either a Deschutes River Horse Ride or Floating tour on May 28th or 29th. It would be 3 participants. I am 53 and in good health. I would be bringing my daughter and her friend which are both 16. My daughter has had a number of horse back riding lessons.
