Giddy up on the Deschutes - A very nice ride alongside the Deschutes and through the pine forest. Vinnie (owner, guide) is outgoing, safety conscious, and focused on making sure all the riders are having a good time. The horses seem very well cared for.

Unforgettable experience of a lifetime - My son and I surprised my wife with a 2.5 hour trail ride along the Deschutes River for her birthday. It was a perfect day and such a wonderful experience! Sharyn and Vinnie were both so friendly and professional and the horses; Tye and Maverick were so sweet and beautiful. Sharyn's knowledge of the area made the experience even more memorable! My wife is still raving about how special and unforgettable the experience was! We are definately coming back! Thank you so much!

Delightful ride! - We had a beautiful ride! I appreciated that safety came first. We were outfitted with helmets and a Hit-Air vest (it's like an airbag for your chest in case of an accidental dismount) The horses, Ty and Maverick, were sure footed and easy going. The ride was all within the forest and along the river, no open meadows. We sometimes shared the trail with some walkers their dogs. Along with the geographic history of the river and lava flows, we were treated to river views that went from rapids to calm. If you love horses and nature, I highly recommend Wilderness Horse Adventures!

great horseback ride - I had a wonderful ride through the high desert and saw some amazing rapids and high water on the river. The horseman was great and so knowledgable about the area. Thanks again. 5 stars.

Getting back to nature was very relaxing - I had a couple of days to myself and chose to wander down the river on horseback for 2 hours. It was absolutely wonderful! Vinnie is a caring guide. Maverick my horse was a confident mount. I hadn't ridden in a very long time. Was a very relaxing nature tour.

Great beginner ride! - Extremely knowledgeable, patient and caring hosts! We had a great ride. My wife and I had very little riding experience and our guides took extra time to make sure we were comfortable and enjoyed our ride.

A bit of a wild ride - Beautiful horseback ride I would recommend but I had a horse that was not fed full breakfast so he was not too happy on my horseback ride so there was a lot more go and stop constantly with my horse good thing I was experience he did Gallup a lot but the guy did let me know in advance that he would do that and he was not as steady as the other horse on my ride as in keeping up I would recommend this tour the guide is very nice but I would have been happier with a horse that was not so wild Took pics and sent and end of tour so kind
