Description
Bundle up and enjoy the beauty of Wisconsin’s winter landscape on a sleigh or wagon ride at Red Ridge Ranch. These 40-minute rides capture the simple joy of a bygone era, where the pace slows and laughter fills the air. Pulled by strong, well-cared-for draft horses, each sleigh glides through open fields and wooded trails as guests snuggle under blankets and take in the view. Afterward, warm up by the campfire with complimentary hot chocolate, or bring your own food and drinks to make it a true family outing. Kids love feeding the horses with purchased treats, and adults appreciate the peaceful country setting just 20 minutes from Wisconsin Dells. Private rides are available for small groups seeking a more intimate experience. Even when the snow takes a break, wagon rides ensure the fun continues. At Red Ridge Ranch, every winter ride is filled with warmth, tradition, and the timeless magic of a sleigh on the snow.
