Special Note: Brasada Trails and our Private Instruction is now closed and will reopen in spring. If you plan to visit us before spring, we are happy to provide transportation to Fly Spur Ranch in Tumalo Falls where our horses spend the winter.
Stand outside of the barns of the Brasada Ranch Equestrian Center, just outside Bend, Oregon, and look up. The high desert sky seems to stretch overhead forever, sweeping and crystal clear in all directions over an ocean of green-grey sage. A light breeze brings the scent of sage and hay. The only sound is the soft stomp of horse hooves in dirt and the jangle of the spurs worn on the cowboy boots of Kevin Friedman, stable manager.
The Brasada Ranch Equestrian Center is one of the finest west of the Mississippi River. Our trusty troop of Western Pleasure horses and Tennessee Walkers come complete with instruction for all ages and abilities in indoor and outdoor arenas as well as trail riding experiences over 900 acres within the resort and thousands more on adjoining lands.
No matter your experience or desires, Brasada Ranch provides a customized Oregon horseback riding experience just for you. Equestrian Center Managers Kevin and Therese Friedman care for 35 well-trained horses. These are fine and true horses, healthy, strong and ready to treat you to the ride of your life. At Brasada Ranch, horseback riders won’t be turning lazy circles in the arena unless that’s exactly what they ask for.
Practice in our incredible equestrian resort arenas, attend group clinics, lease a horse on a regular basis, arrange private lessons, watch a world-class event, take a ride with your whole family, or simply saddle up and head out solo on these incredible Central Oregon trails—some of the most beautiful the American West has to offer.
The choice is yours.
