The desert sky is brilliant blue as you ride through the arroyos and washes toward the summit of South Mountain. Slowly you rise in elevation, surrounded by beautiful desert flowers and towering Saguaro cactus. Desert rabbits and quail dart across the narrow, less- trodden trail passing through intricate rock formations, leaving the city of Phoenix behind. The air is clear and dry as you pass through the spectacular scenery of the Sonoran Desert. Phoenix sprawls across the valley floor as you view it from the quiet of the hills. You are in the desert southwest, experiencing it, and seeing it the way it was meant to be seen... on the back of a horse.


Nestled in the foothills of South Mountain Park, the largest city park in the world, Ponderosa Livery Stable offers over 50 miles of trails criss-crossing through 18,000 acres of pristine Sonoran Desert.

4worldlovers: We believe that finances are a lousy reason to tell someone that they can't learn to ride.


We believe that being around horses is good for humans, physically, mentally, and emotionally.


We believe in community. We believe that life is better with friends, and if those friends like horses, well, that's just swell.


We believe that being outside is GOOD. Especially for kids. But for grown-ups, too.


We don't believe in just showing up and riding. We believe in getting your hands dirty, feeling your horse's soft fur, and getting to know your horse before climbing on.


We believe that it is okay for only one person to win a blue ribbon. We also believe that it is okay to be frustrated about this, as long as you take a deep breath and resolve to try again.


We believe in living a life of abundance, not of scarcity.
