Overview

From Anchorage, spend a full day experiencing the beauty and rhythm of life on a working Alaskan ranch. This 8-hour guided tour blends scenic horseback riding, a behind-the-scenes ranch visit, and sweeping views of the Matanuska Valley.

Start at the historic homestead, where you’ll meet the horses and see the original barn, built from timber milled on-site. Then saddle up for a relaxed trail ride through rolling pastures and open fields, with panoramic views of the Chugach and Talkeetna mountain ranges.

Guests travel in custom Hummers between stops across the ranch—visiting grazing pastures, barns, and gardens, while learning about daily ranch operations. Knowledgeable guides share stories of the land, wildlife, and nearby peaks.

Midday, enjoy a deli lunch in a clear-top tent set in the high hayfield, with 360-degree mountain views. It’s the perfect chance to relax, take photos, and soak it all in.

After a day of adventure, return to Anchorage with unforgettable memories.
