Equine Retreats
The Remuda runs equine wellness retreats and equine-assisted learning days on a working ranch near Mountain Home, Idaho. Groundwork first, riding if you want it, and a herd that tells the truth.
Every retreat starts on the ground: how to approach a horse, where to stand, and how to read what the animal is already telling you. Guests who have never touched a horse usually find this the most surprising part of the day.
Only after that does anyone think about riding — and only the guests who want to.
For those who ride, the trail runs out into open high desert. Pace is set by the least confident rider in the group, which is the point. Helmets and all equipment are provided.
Teams, families, and organizations can reserve the ranch for a private equine day. Tell us what you're hoping the day does for the group and we'll shape it around the herd and the season.

Riding is optional at every retreat. Plenty of guests spend the whole day on the ground with the herd, and that's a full experience, not a fallback.
Ranch horses that live and work here. We match each guest to a horse based on temperament and comfort level on the day, not on a sign-up sheet.
