Ride Overview

The Pacific Northwest. An area of the United States that is carved from rugged coastline and by jagged mountain ranges.

With a cooler climate than California, the gently rolling hills surrounding the Willamette Valley are home to some of the best (and most expensive) Pinot Noir in the world, as well as a high-quality Pinot Gris. So if you liked Napa or Sonoma – come to where the quality is even better!

The horses are hearty and agile Irish Sport Horses that will carry you through the fertile and fragrant Willamette Valley, across the Coastal Range and down for long fun beach gallops through the Pacific spray!
