Riding

    

Sun Bowl Ranch and Mountain View
Ranch
offer rides to fit nearly every schedule, preference, and skill level:

Sleigh Rides

     Come join us for an unforgettable winter sleigh ride through the scenic Vermont countryside. Snuggle up under warm blankets and glide through new-fallen snow. Our big Belgian brothers, Smoky and Bandit, will jingle their bells all the way to a cozy campfire set in the wintry woods. Once you're there, John and Letitia will treat you to steaming hot chocolate and all the fixin's for marshmallow s'mores. (Feel free to bring your own snack or a bottle of wine as well.) After visiting and warming up awhile, you'll return to the Ranch as darkness descends on the majestic landscape.

This wonderful trip
into yesteryear will
provide indelible memories for you and your friends or loved ones. To make sure that they're all happy memories, please dress for the Vermont weather. Warm, dry coats, hats, mittens, and especially boots are essential to comfort.

     The sleigh ride lasts about an hour—a 15-minute ride to the campfire, a 30-minute break for complimentary hot chocolate and s'mores, and another 15-minute ride back to the ranch.
