Ruby’s Horseback Adventures

Horseback riding is one of the things to do in Bryce that should not be missed during your stay. Low-impact and exciting, horseback rides are a suitable activity for almost everyone. If you are looking to take a little break from your strenuous activities, going for a horseback ride is a great way to do it. When you decide you’d like to go riding, choosing Ruby’s Horseback Adventures to ride with is a smart decision. Ruby’s has many different options to make your riding experience as enjoyable as possible. Whether you’d like to take an hour-long ride or stay out the whole day, Ruby’s has the adventure for you.

Types of Rides

Horse trail rides

One hour ride The one hour ride is a great riding experience for everyone from beginners to experienced riders. This short tour takes you through many scenic areas like Water Canyon Amphitheater, Boat Mesa, and Sinking Ship Peak. As you slowly ride along you will have the opportunity to really take in the scenic views and experience Bryce Canyon as it should be experienced.

Minnie’s Favorite Minnie’s Favorite ride is a 1 ½ hour long ride through many of the areas that the one-hour ride takes you through. You will also climb up Bristlecone Pine Ridge and find yourself at the base of the 1,500-year-old bristlecone pines. This four-and-a-half-mile-long ride is a great way to see amazing views in a short amount of time.

Half day ride This half day ride provides magnificent views and a great riding experience. You will ride through Losee Canyon among the stunning red rocks. You will see hoodoos up close and personal as you trot along the trails. This ride is about six miles long from start to finish and will take approximately three hours to complete. It is the longest ride suitable for inexperienced riders and provides a great journey and memorable experience when horseback riding near Bryce.

All day ride This all-day horseback riding experience is not for beginners or inexperienced riders. This ride will take you along Casto Canyon and Losee Canyon as you ride through Red Canyon. This all-day ride will take around six to eight hours to complete. You will be provided a box lunch and will get to take a mid-ride break in the wilderness to eat and rest. If you are at least a novice rider and have a day available, the all-day ride will be an amazing experience.

Thunder mountain ride This excellent ride is not for the faint of heart. You will ride along steep trails and be on the edge of long drop offs. You must rely on your horse to know what to do on these difficult trails. This trail is not for beginning riders or people who are afraid of heights. This ride will test your skills and take about four hours to complete. The Thunder Mountain Ride is one of the most exhilarating things to do in Bryce.

Wagon If horseback riding isn’t your style but you’d still like to see the scenery in a rustic way, a wagon ride may be the perfect option for you. You will be seated in a wagon which will be pulled by horses through the gorgeous landscape of the National Forest and to the Rim of Bryce Canyon. The wagons hold 12 guests but a group wagon, which holds 50, can be requested, as well. This exciting ride, suitable for all ages, will be an experience you never forget.

Sleigh rides If you are visiting Bryce Canyon in the winter, you shouldn’t miss the magical sleigh ride provided by Ruby’s Horseback Adventures. Like the wagon ride, you will board a horse-drawn sleigh and be carried away to the Rim of Bryce Canyon. The landscape changes from red rock to a magical white dusting which makes this riding option even more incredible.

Bryce Canyon Rodeo If you’d like to experience a genuine cowboy activity, the Bryce Canyon Rodeo is a can’t miss adventure. Every Wednesday through Saturday, from Memorial Day to August, you will have the opportunity to see what being a cowboy really means. The rodeo features bronco busters, rope skills, and many other exciting horseback activities. Watching these cowboys in action is a once in a lifetime experience.

If you’d rather be a part of the action than be a spectator, the Bryce Canyon Rodeo gives you the option to get in on the action. That’s right, you can test your cowboy skills and really see what you’re made of. Adults can try their hand at bull riding while kids can hop on to a steer or sheep. If you’re brave enough to let your inner cowboy out, there is no better place to do it.

Ride with Ruby’s If you are looking for horseback riding near Bryce, Ruby’s is a terrific option. There are so many reasons to ride with Ruby’s Horseback Adventures. They offer a wide variety of riding options, areas, and even some extra family fun. Whether you are an experienced rider or have never been on horseback, you will have an unforgettable time at Ruby’s Horseback Adventures.

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.
