Oftentimes you think of laid-back beach vacations, sandy toes, and sun kissed hair. But here at Greenhorn Ranch, we are known for a different type of laid back vacation. Located in Northern California’s Lost Sierra, our dude ranch is known for fostering families and new traditions. Catering to greenhorns from around the world, we guide families and vacationers on a genuine horse ranch experience with guided trail rides, horseback riding lessons, expert wranglers, and stocked fishing ponds. As a working dude ranch, you’ll often find us outdoors doing what we love to do most. So here are just a few reasons why California is the perfect place for a ranch vacation.
