Valentine’s at Shelby Ranch: A Ride Made for Two 💘🐎
Looking for a Valentine’s experience that’s cozy, romantic, and unforgettable? This winter, Shelby Ranch invites couples to slow things down and celebrate love the old-fashioned way with a private sleigh or wagon ride through the countryside, or a private horseback riding trail ride for two.
Whether snow blankets the fields or winter sunshine keeps the ground bare, your Valentine’s date adapts beautifully to the weather, no stress, just magic.
❄️ Sleigh or Wagon Rides - Weather Decides the Adventure
At Shelby Ranch, winter chooses the ride:
Snowy conditions mean a classic horse-drawn sleigh, bells jingling as you glide along the trail.
Milder weather brings a charming horse-drawn wagon, wrapped in blankets and warm winter vibes.
🐴 Private Trail Ride for Two
For couples who love a little adventure, our private Valentine’s trail ride offers a peaceful escape into the woods and open fields. Ride side-by-side, soak in the quiet of winter, and enjoy uninterrupted time together surrounded by nature.
🔥 Cozy Bonfire Included (books on Valentine's Weekend)
After your ride, warm up by a crackling bonfire included with your Valentine’s experience. It’s the perfect place to:
Relax and linger a little longer
Warm cold hands and toes
Share quiet conversation under the winter sky
Snap a few photos, and enjoy the calm, cozy atmosphere that makes winter at the ranch so special.
