from around the globe, to fish in the incredible turquoise waters of the
Kenai River. Also accessible from Cooper Landing is the Kenai

you choose a half-day or full day trail ride, whether you decide on a winter
sleigh ride, or a romantic carriage ride on a long summer afternoon, whether
you've never sat on a horse before, or you are an old hand, you are going to
have a great time. The trail rides
take you through Cooper Landing's back country, to the base of Mt. Langille,
where you most likely will spot sheep playing high up on the rock face. A snack
break is provided and you'll definitely want to have your camera at the ready -
with plenty of extra film! This half day adventure is scheduled to head
out at 9am and 2pm. A full day trip is just the ticket if you want to meet
nature on her own terms and just enjoy the outdoors. You'll ride into a
remote mountain valley in the Chugach National Forest, with a leisurely lunch
break. Relax and enjoy the scenery! In the two hour valley tour,
you'll find yourself riding your horse through a silent forest, crossing Quartz
Creek and taking a break on the shores of beautiful Kenai Lake. This ride
departs at 9:30am, 2:30 pm and even offers a wonderful evening ride at
6pm. Winter rides, sleigh rides, and carriage rides are available, as are
accommodations for group retreats, including a fire pit, horse shoes, a sauna,
