Equestrian Trail Riding & Scenic Trails

In Summer and Fall especially, there is endlessly magnificent mountain scenery for equine trail rides and hikes, just out the doorsteps of Black Mountain Ranches. At Twelvemile Lake, you may catch a beautiful view of Lamb Mountain. The Twelvemile Lake Trail and Rough & Tumble Creek Trail are among the local favorites for equestrian rides, hiking or fishing. Sheep Creek Trail is also a favorite for equestrian, mountain biking or hiking. There is an abundant forest trail and BLM network surrounding the nearby areas and other trails to check out are along the South Fork Platte and Cave Creek.
