Pusch Ridge Stables, Tucson

What a wonderful way to experience the foothills of the Santa Catalina Mountains! With a great guide, good horses, and spectacular scenery, it was a wonderful ride, and felt like we were a world away from the hubbub of traffic and city life. The guide was informative, and made sure we went at a comfortable pace – as a beginner that was reassuring. I recommend wearing long pants, as the horses sometimes get close to prickly shrubs along the trails, and/or wear something you won’t mind getting caught on thorns. Sun glasses and sun screen on sunny days are a must. Earlier in the day is a cooler time to ride. Bring your camera for photo ops! It was definitely worth the time and money. I thoroughly enjoyed it!
