Event Completed

Bring your lunches as we will not have concessions available this time!

Please haul out ALL Trash and Manure!  (We can not throw it over the fence!)

San Tan Mountain Park trails are very popular because they offer a unique perspective of the lower Sonoran Desert, with wonderful wildlife, plant life including crested saguaros and flowering cacti, hieroglyphs and scenic mountain views, including awesome views of the valley!

Our ride will be about 6- 7 miles long and is rated easy to moderate.  Although the trails are not very rocky, there are rocky portions and it is recommended to have shoes or bring boots along.  

FEES:  There is a $5 Park fee for everyone due at ETS ride check-in (You will also pay the $6 at the Park Entry Gate upon entry)  or $12 to camp fee per night at the gate.  

The park camp area is a "dry camp" meaning no hookups. Water is available near the entry gate. There are no horse pens available at the campground, although there is plenty of room to put up pens or high-line your horse between trailers, or tie to the trailer.  Over nite camp fee is $12 per rig, per night paid at entry gate. But you then can also ride Friday or Sunday...

Bring your lunches, unfortunately we will not have concessions available this time.  

All dogs must be leashed.  Please haul out all manure and trash!
