About
Telluride Sleighs and Wagons takes you by horse-drawn sleigh, or by wagon when snow or trails call for it, across the Aldasoro family ranch outside town. Afternoon rides pick you up at the San Miguel County Courthouse, 305 W Colorado Ave, drive you to the ranch, then take you by sleigh to a winter sheep camp for hot drinks and s'mores by the campfire. They take about two hours door to door and don't include a meal.
Evening dinner rides are private, for one group at a time, with pickup where you choose and dinner in a heated tent at the sheep camp. Bring your own drinks.
History
The Aldasoro Ranch dates to the early 1920s, when the family, Basque immigrants from northern Spain, came to the San Juans to supply lamb and wool to the mining camps. The family is marking 100 years on the land in 2026, and the rides open this part of the ranch to the public for the first time.
When to go
Winter only. When we checked in November 2026, the company was closed for the off-season and taking reservations for winter 2026-27. As posted, the 1 p.m. ride runs Tuesday to Saturday, the 3 p.m. ride Tuesday to Thursday, and dinner rides Tuesday to Saturday evenings.
Good to know
Day rides hold up to 14 people and need at least 6 guests, or they may be canceled. The sleigh is open to the weather, so wear a coat, hat, gloves and winter footwear. Wool blankets are provided. For a baby, bring and install your own car seat.
Every booking takes a $50 per person deposit, refundable up to 7 days before. Cancellations within 48 hours, or no-shows, pay the full price.
