Guided Trail Riding

Joshua Tree National Park

About Us

At Knob Hill Ranch, we offer privately guided horseback rides through Joshua Tree National Park on 253 miles of equestrian trails and corridors that traverse slot canyon, dry washes and open deserts to reveal spectacular panoramic views across the beautiful Mojave Desert. You will have the opportunity to further your knowledge of western horsemanship by grooming, saddling and riding some of the finest guest horses in the high desert and, most importantly, building a deep connection with your personal horse selected for you by our team of professional wranglers and ranch staff.

  • GREAT LOCATION

    Knob Hill is a beautiful ranch. The staff was easy to communicate with via email and over the phone, as they were very quick to respond and provide the information I asked for…What was most important to me is that the horses are clearly well cared for and happy animals. You can tell they are well-loved. I highly recommend checking them out for a beautiful ride!

  • INCREDIBLE GUIDES

    Our family had the most wonderful time at Knob Hill Ranch. Exactly the experience we were looking for- a place for horseback riding "novices" to enjoy the beautiful Joshua Tree Park and desert views on a casual ride with the friendliest guides…Our afternoon at Knob Hill was a highlight from our week in Yucca Valley.

  • BEAUTIFUL HORSES

    This was an unbelievable experience. I've been to Joshua Tree many times, but have never been horseback riding there. It took Joshua Tree to another level. We traveled through Joshua Tree National Park and got to experience amazing views. The horses were beautiful and well taken care of…I'm so happy we added this to our trip.
