Bear Creek Stables Trail Rides
We are proud to celebrate our 26th anniversary, including our 12th season partnering with the City of Lakewood to offer incredible trail rides set in the scenic foothills of Lakewood, Colorado at Bear Creek Lake Park.
Horse Rentals
At our Stable located in Bear Creek Lake Park we can accommodate small or large groups for horse rides with miles of trails set in over 2600 acres of beautiful parkland with its natural habitat, preserves and wildlife. This experience is good family fun and a great adventure.
Note: If you have a child with special needs we can accommodate you with our trained Wranglers and experienced Staff to help make this a special day for your family.
Sunset Trail Rides
These trail rides run Memorial Day through Labor Day, Friday thru Sunday.
Bear Creek Lake Park is known for it’s natural habitat, preserves and wildlife. Schedule an early evening trail ride and experience mule deer, coyote and foxes, a large population of red tailed hawk and even a pair of bald eagles who visit the park each year. Finish your ride with an open bon-fire as you enjoy the sunset! Please call for menu choices!
We need a minimum number of guests of 10 or more required for us to run this service, please call about menu choices!
(Alcohol beverages additional)
MS Carol's Grill
From Buffalo Burgers to Brats, Ms Carol’s got it all. Conveniently located at the Stable, she has won the hearts and stomachs of many visitors to the Park and at the Stables. A colorful character of wit and wisdom, Ms. Carol will share great food and conversation with all! Popular with the many Wranglers & Volunteers we all look forward to the summer season. So “get on over” for lunch or a ice cold drink before or after your trail ride or visit to the Park.
First Time Riders
Our Wranglers will teach you the tricks to riding horses. The horses that we use are well trained and well behaved. We take first time riders all the time. If you are a first time rider, come join us and let us show you how much fun riding can be.
What to expect
Rides run every day starting April 15th through Sept. 31st. You will arrive at the park and drive to our checkin office at the Stable. There you will read and sign our waiver. We will inroduce you to your guide who will take you on your ride. Your guide will give you a safety briefing, find out about your riding skill, give you some riding tips as necessary and introduce you to your horse. Once you are all saddled up, it is time to hit the trail.
