As the light softens and the heat of the day fades, the herds head quietly up to the mountain meadows. These are the moments that give us pause to appreciate the magical nature of the Sanctuary. Beginning at 6:00 pm, join us for a 90-minute walking tour, sharing stories of the farm and the Sanctuary residents, then watch as the herds migrate up the paths to grassy meadows in the summer evening glow. See horses living in dynamic, free-running groups, as nature intended. Meet wild mustangs, rescued work horses, many with special needs. Be sure to tell us if you have a favorite, so we can point them out and make an introduction! We follow approved procedures to keep visitors and staff safe and healthy. Please see full details below.
