WHAT IS GELDING GIRL RANCH CAMP?

A one-day ranch camp for women who want to feel more comfortable around horses, more confident in the saddle, and more at home in the Western world.

Gelding Girls Ranch Camp is a one-day, beginner-friendly ranch experience for women who want more than a trail ride. Learn how to approach, catch, halter, groom, and saddle a steady gelding before heading out for a relaxed two-hour ride through Old Snowmass.

With only eight guests and two experienced guides, the day is personal, hands-on, and built to help you feel more comfortable around horses—whether it is your first time or your first time in a long time.

8 guests max · 2 guides · $690 per person (18 & older)
9:00 am–2:00 pm · Old Snowmass, Colorado

A Day at the Ranch

Gelding Girls Ranch Camp is designed for beginners, returning riders, and women who want a welcoming, no-pressure way to build confidence around horses.

You’ll start the morning at the barn with coffee, breakfast, and a warm welcome before learning how to safely approach, catch, halter, groom, and saddle your horse. From there, you’ll head out for a relaxed two-hour guided ride through the ranch landscape, with plenty of support along the way.

It’s hands-on, approachable, and intentionally small, so every guest gets personal attention.
