Horseback Riding and Mountain Biking at Ranch in San Juan Mountains
Los Angeles resident and movie buff Robert Bucksbaum owns Majestic Dude Ranch in southwest Colorado, but he’s not a stereotypical dude-ranch owner. Before purchasing the half-century-old ranch, Bucksbaum spent the better part of a decade running a single-screen movie theater. Movies are still a part of his resort, as outdoor screenings—often Westerns—are among the resort's nightly activities. Located at an 8,000-foot elevation in the San Juan Mountains, Majestic Dude Ranch evokes the kind of Old West ambiance commonly seen in classic Western films. It's an ideal spot for riding horseback, roping cattle, or simply relaxing before a campfire.
Majestic Dude Ranch's distinctive red ranch house and cabins welcome visitors with rocking chairs, log furniture, and grizzly bears masquerading as recliners. Campfires blaze at nighttime. Despite the rustic vibe, guests can still take dips in the jacuzzi and pool. The staff stocks refrigerators with each guest's favorite snacks, and a bottomless cookie jar is filled with freshly baked sweets.
While you’re here, there are several outdoor activities that take advantage of the gorgeous mountain scenery. Majestic Dude Ranch equips guests with cowboy boots and steeds to ride along the winding mountain trails at nearby Mesa Verde National Park, and mountain bikes are available as well. Counselors keep pintsize cowboys entertained with gold panning, hayrides, and hula-hoop cattle roping. Adults can trek to the Animas River for whitewater rafting or fly-fishing, or take a shuttle to the historical mining town of Durango.
Highlights of Mancos, Colorado
- Mesa Verde National Park features 600 ancient Pueblo cliff dwellings, sandstone steppes, and ponderosa-pine forests on more than 8,000 acres.
- Durango: This town boasts art galleries, historical museums, and Native American trading posts selling handwoven Navajo rugs and pottery.
- All aboard!: An old-fashioned steam locomotive chugs along the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, which has operated for more than a century.
