What riders say about Los Cerrillos stables

Turquoise Hills Riding Co

Horseback riding is a must in Santa Fe if you want to enjoy the beauty of the NM valleys. The horse were gently giants and autonomous, so it's perfect for beginners rider. This ride was especially memorable for me since it was also the day I proposed to my Fiancee! Harold worked with me to set up the special occasion.

Galisteo Creek Stables

Had booked with another stable and they had to cancel at the last moment. Chris could not have been more accommodating with our schedule and tour request to ride that same morning. Directions were easy to follow. You get a feel when you drive onto the ranch that place is well organized and run.

★★★★★ Ken, May 2025

Nizhoni Ranch And Stables

Comfortable space, lots of amenities, beautiful views, quiet but close enough to Santa Fe, Albequerque. Options include interactions with horses, catering from onsite chef, yoga, group retreats, and more. Highly recommended.
