Cowboy Gathering weekend, ranch-style 🤎⁠
⁠
The celebration didn’t end with the parade!⁠
⁠
In honor of Durango Cowboy Gathering weekend, we welcomed many locals to Colorado Trails Ranch for a beautiful fall ride through the mountains. 🍂⁠
⁠
After the ride, everyone headed back to the ranch for a delicious BBQ, live music, and a chance to spend the evening together.⁠
⁠
Fall colors, horses, good food, live music, and great company. We can’t think of a better way to celebrate Durango’s Western traditions. ⁠
⁠
Thanks to everyone who saddled up and joined us!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Durango’s favorite fall tradition 🤠⁠
⁠
Today, downtown Durango looked a little more like the Wild West as horses, cowboys, cowgirls, wagons, and local ranchers took over Main Avenue for the annual Durango Cowboy Gathering Parade.⁠
⁠
And of course, Colorado Trails Ranch joined in the fun!⁠
⁠
The Cowboy Gathering celebrates the Western heritage that is still very much alive here in Southwest Colorado. It’s one of those weekends that brings the whole community together and reminds us why we love calling this place home.⁠
⁠
Horses in the streets, cowboys in town, crisp fall air, and the San Juan Mountains as the backdrop. It doesn’t get much more Colorado than this. ⁠
⁠
If you’re planning a fall trip to Durango, this is one tradition worth timing your visit around.⁠

Imagine getting the whole family together and NOT having to figure out where everyone will stay, what everyone will eat, or how you’re going to keep all those different ages entertained.⁠
⁠
That’s where we come in. 🤎⁠
⁠
Our **Summer All-Inclusive Dude Ranch season** is perfect for family reunions because once everyone arrives, we handle the details. ⁠
⁠
Accommodations, meals, and activities are all part of the experience, so the people who planned the reunion can actually enjoy it too!⁠
⁠
Spend your days horseback riding through the San Juan Mountains, fishing, hiking, swimming, shooting, enjoying our kids’ program, and making memories that are hard to recreate when everyone lives in different places.⁠
⁠
And the best part? There’s something for every generation. Everyone can spend the day together or choose their own adventures, then come back together for meals and evenings at the ranch.⁠
⁠
Our **2027 Summer All-Inclusive season runs May 30 through August 14**, with six-night stays and approximately 40–50 guests at the ranch each week.⁠
⁠
So instead of renting a big house and spending your family reunion planning meals and entertaining everyone…⁠
⁠
Come to the ranch and let us do the work. 🤎 The memories made at the ranch will stay in the family forever like a good recipe! ⁠
⁠
SEND this to the person in your family who always ends up planning the reunion! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Hunting season has officially begun at Colorado Trails Ranch!⁠ 🦌
⁠
Colorado Trails partners with Peak to Creek Outfitters to offer specialized hunting trips, and you can experience them in two VERY different ways.⁠
⁠
🐴 Go completely off-grid. Pack into the National Forest on horseback and spend five days on the mountain for a true backcountry hunting experience. Wilderness camps include canvas tents, cookstoves, kitchen supplies, and firewood.⁠
⁠
🏡 Or come back to the ranch each night. Spend your days hunting on ranch property that backs up to National Forest, with grab-and-go breakfast and lunch available for the trail. Then return to your own ranch cabin and relax over a chef-prepared dinner in the lodge.⁠
⁠
Right now, one archery hunter is enjoying the deluxe ranch experience, and another is heading into the wilderness with our wranglers for five days to fill his freezer with his elk tag.⁠
⁠
We offer both guided and unguided hunts.⁠
⁠
So which are you choosing: five days off-grid in the backcountry or a cabin and chef-prepared dinner waiting for you each night? 👇⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

The bears thought the chicken coop was an easy target. They forgot about Minnie. 🐻🐶⁠
⁠
Meet Minnie. Small dog. Big personality. And apparently, head of ranch security!⁠
⁠
While things have been a little quieter around Colorado Trails Ranch, Minnie has been keeping a very close eye on things, including making sure a few curious bears know exactly who runs this place.⁠
⁠
Minnie may be small, but don’t let that fool you. Ranch security is taken VERY seriously around here. ⁠
⁠
If you’ve spent time at the ranch, you probably already know Minnie. A bit of a celebrity around here, and for good reason!⁠
⁠
Just another day at Colorado Trails Ranch. 🐴🏔️🐶⁠
⁠
Who else thinks Minnie deserves a raise? 😂⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

A dude ranch vacation…but make it adults-only. ⁠
⁠
Yep, we have a week just for the grown-ups.⁠
⁠
Every year, Colorado Trails Ranch hosts an Adults-Only Week — a quieter version of our Summer All-Inclusive experience, with all the ranch magic and no kids’ program.⁠
⁠
Spend your days horseback riding through the San Juan Mountains, hiking, shooting, fishing, relaxing by the pool, or simply slowing down and enjoying life at the ranch.⁠
⁠
Then come back to your cabin, gather around the table for incredible meals, and enjoy those beautiful Colorado evenings.⁠
⁠
Come as a couple, bring your friends, or turn it into the ultimate group getaway.⁠

The guests aren’t the only ones making memories around here. 🤎⁠
⁠
Behind every trail ride, home-cooked meal, rodeo, kids’ activity, perfectly made cabin, and unforgettable week at Colorado Trails is a pretty incredible crew.⁠
⁠
Our wranglers. Our kitchen team. Operations. Housekeeping. Office staff. And everyone working behind the scenes who keeps this place running day after day.⁠
⁠
And somewhere between the early mornings, long days, horses, mountains, meals, laughter, and a little ranch chaos… they manage to have a whole lot of fun, too!⁠
⁠
Here’s a little behind-the-scenes look at the people who make Colorado Trails what it is.⁠
⁠
There’s a lot to love about Colorado Trails, but the people are truly the heart of this ranch. ⁠
⁠
Here’s to our 2026 crew! Drop them some love below. 👇🏼⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
