Your day will start at Lajitas Stables (located 2.5 miles west of Lajitas, Texas on FM 170) at 8:30 am.

Our route climbs high into the rugged mountains and mesas that frame the Rio Grande, and spectacular vistas into Old Mexico make this an unforgettable ride.   Our famous saddlebag lunch (smoked meat, imported cheeses & crackers, fresh fruit, and other goodies) is served in the shade of a hidden canyon.  After lunch we wind our way back down the Mesa, enjoying more dramatic views across the Rio Grande.

When we return to Lajitas Stables, you'll have time to change from jeans and boots to shorts and sandals, before your river guide arrives to shuttle you to the river’s edge.  Depending on the water level in the Rio Grande, you will board rafts or canoes for the second half of your all day adventure.

[If you like your ride, kiss your horse and tip your guides! Your wranglers & river ruides work for tips.. Please tip your wrangler before you leave for the river, and tip your river guide after your river portion. Your guides work very hard to provide an unforgettable experience, and they appreciate your generosity!]

 

Your trip may vary from the description above due to a number of factors including (but not limited to) weather, water levels, your group or your guides.
