Imagine a getaway experience that begins with riding horseback out to secluded waters in the beautiful Vail Valley and moves on to fly fishing for photo worthy trout. At Minturn Anglers, we can make this dream a reality!

Come with us for an exclusive and completely private full day or overnight trip to a large ranch only half an hour from Vail Village and Beaver Creek. Located on the edge of Piney Lake, nestled in the foothills of the majestic Gore Range, this private ranch provides access to thousands of acres and countless lakes and ponds. The number and size of trout in the waters make this trip one of the best Vail fly fishing excursions ever, ideal for those who want to escape the crowds and just focus on the fish. Our horseback fly fishing trips are designed to provide anglers with access to the more remote waters in the Front Range.

This adventure is perfect for couples, families and groups. It provides seclusion and privacy for a  romantic get-away, the ideal opportunity for parents and kids to enjoy a western-style bonding experience in the splendor of Colorado’s great backyard, or the chance for a select group to spend quality time together. The scenery is spectacular, the glimpses of wildlife unforgettable, and the fly fishing the basis for years of memorable story-telling.

Our professional staff adapts to meet the needs of clients, regardless of fly fishing or horseback riding skills. Clients are accompanied by a professional fly fishing guide from Minturn Anglers, who has the knowledge and enthusiasm to guarantee the perfect angling experience for men, women and children even if they are new to the sport. A horse wrangler ensures that horses match riders’ skill levels and provides any necessary guidance.

Arrange overnight accommodation and specify meal and beverage options. Remember too that all trips include all necessary equipment, including a rod, reel, waders, boots and flies. A phone call is all that is needed to begin a special Vail Valley vacation experience!
