Nothing seems more appropriate in Cody, Wyoming than riding on horseback. All of the dude ranches offer trail rides as part of a guests stay. However, if they aren't staying at a ranch they can still have a horseback ride at Cedar Mountain Trail Rides. There are two locations to choose from. The first is one mile west of the rodeo grounds in Cody and the second is one mile east of the airport at the KOA Campground.
Visitors can choose from one hour trail rides to an entire day on horseback. If visitors want longer experiences of the old west they can go on pack trips that include fishing expeditions. If they would like to see some of the wildlife of the area a pack trip that takes visitors on a photography excursion can also be arranged.
