Horseback riding in Nebraska

Nebraska riding is ranch country: the grass-covered dunes of the Sandhills, the Niobrara River valley and the buttes and pine ridges of the northwest. Fort Robinson State Park near Crawford, home to bison and longhorn herds, offers wrangler-led rides in summer, and horse trails cross the Pine Ridge and the Soldier Creek Wilderness in the Nebraska National Forest. Working cattle ranches in the Sandhills welcome guests to ride along and help move cattle.
