Few know that Arizona has the largest stand of Ponderosa Pine in the world and temperature ranges that actually accommodate water skiing and snow skiing in the same day. From the Grand Canyon to rich Native American traditions, Arizona offers vibrant colors and landscapes with breathtaking mountains, swift rivers and gracious grasslands.

The desert is also home of the Wild West, the land of cowboys and Indians, prospectors, gamblers and dusty towns. The character of the Old West is epitomised in the old mining town of Tombstone, the site of the famous shootout at the OK Corral where staged gunfights, swinging saloon doors and old wooden buildings are reminders of the harsh past that respected the 'law of the gun'. Outside the cities, the Native Americans who have lived in Arizona for centuries make up the majority of the population, and more than a third of the land is encompassed within Indian Reservations.

One of the best ways (if not the only way) to see Arizona's natural splendor is on horseback. And our Arizona's ranching program showcases the states natural beauty in all it's glory and offers a more relaxing way to take it all in. From guided trails to riding in the working cattle ranch in Gold Canyon, the Old West history is brought to life in this unique way to experience nature and see all that Arizona has to offer.
