A Holiday Sleigh Ride in Colorado
What a great time of year for A Holiday Sleigh Ride in Colorado. A fun way to share a one of kind, holiday travel idea. Imagine yourself actually living out the lyrics to Jingle Bells with a fun old fashioned sleigh ride in the mountains.
Ever since I was a little girl and learned the words to Jingle Bells, I have always dreamed about riding in a old fashion sleigh in the snow. I guess that is the visual part of me, I can’t just sing a song, I automatically have to envision it. 
A beautiful horse gliding across the snowy hills and dales with picturesic mountains as our backdrop. The fresh scent of pine in the crisp cold air, the sound of the bells jingling with each trot of the horse. Snuggling under a warm, fur blanket with your sweetie at your side, was nothing short of perfection.
Our friendly guide took us on a 20-minute ride to a remote mountain top site. She also told us they just had a fresh snow, the night before, which made everything exceptionally pretty, and we were very lucky to see it.
She then tied off our beautiful, hardworking horse and allowed us to disembark. Of course, I had to ask if I could pet our sweet horse, because I am such a huge animal lover. She actually had apples and carrots in her pockets and allowed me to feed him. 
While we were at the outpost we took some fun pictures, and enjoyed the mountain vistas. The weather was changing so fast that day, over the mountain peeks in the distance. We were able to watch the snow roll in and before we left it was gone again. 
While just enjoying the quite serenity of the snow covered mountain tops we also partook in some complimentary Hot Cocoa with Peppermint Schnapps, which to me just feels like Christmas!!!
I would highly recommend this adventure to any in the local area or if you are on vacation in Colorado for the holidays. Two Below Zero also offers family dinner sleigh rides with a themed dining experience that offers a Colorado feeling you will never forget.

This looks so magical! I wish we had something like this here!
Sleigh rides look so fun ! I’ve never been on one
What a nice article. I love your photos. We don’t have any winter scenes where I live. 🙂 So it is nice to see this.
Aw this looks so perfect for a date night or for kids!
I live in Texas but I am from Boston and boy do I miss our winters (sometimes, LOL). I would love to do a sleigh ride in the snow how romantic actually, I’ll have to find one on my next winter destination.
Wow, looks like a dream, like being in a snow globe! Something I’d love to try one day but it hasn’t snowed where I am the past couple of years. Looks like you had a great time!
Beautiful pics! You and the backdrop look gorgeous! So fun, thanks for sharing
Absolutely gorgeous. Your descriptions took me right into that winter wonderland with you. All I need now is the cocoa and schnapps!
Such beautiful scenery ! Love the photos
We live in Northern Colorado and the winter feels like the hallmark channel to me. Beautiful !
