Private Trail Riding in Joshua Tree National Park

Having a ranch in the high desert is like living a dream underneath the starlit sky with its impressive milkyway while watching the silhouettes of the famous and impressive Joshua Trees waving in the mellow night time winds. At our horse ranch, activities start very early in the morning during the hot summer months, like July, August and September. We feed the horses at around 6 am and are usually out on the trails by latest 8 am to enjoy the morning hours before the blazing heat around 2pm seems to stop all activity (even the ones of the lizards and snakes). Another good time to ride in the summer is after 4pm until sunset which is usually around 8pm in the Southern California hemisphere.

In the spring, fall and winter time, we start a little later since we can easily ride during the day. The temperatures in spring and fall are just wonderful. In the winter time, we can have a little snow for a couple of days, but usually the temperatures are around 30s at night and 50s during the day.
