Trails of the Ancient - two weeks


Trails of the Ancient - two weeks
Arizona USA

Join us on a two week journey between and through some of the most impressive valleys and canyons of the Southwest. We start our ride in Utah with the Valley of Gods and overlook parts of the Grand Canyon and then ride into Arizona and the wonders of Monument Valley.
This is a forward going camping ride with some lay-over camps and loop rides full of great scenery and history view. Ride and Explore the canyons that were once the home ancient Anasazi and more recently, the land of the Ute and Navajo then into the Valley of the Gods. Many great spots for pictures and long stretches of cantering in between those rock formations will make this an unforgettable adventure.
The 2nd week we travel towards Mexican Hat and across the river into the Navajo Nation where we will meet our native guides. You have probably seen Monument Valley hundreds of times, but as you ride through it, you will see the real thing perhaps for the first time; And somehow Monument Valley doesn't look like the Monument Valley you’ve seen before. It is rather overwhelming. One night while in the Nation, the Navajos may perform some traditional songs and dancing for us around a camp fire. It is an awesome experience in our canyon camp with the cliff walls echoing the voices of the singers and spirits.
You can join us for week one, week two, or for the complete two-week ride.
