Going to be in the Bridgeport, Lee Vining, or Virginia Lakes area this summer? Let one of our guides give you a tour of some truly interesting sights and beautiful scenery. A horseback ride is the perfect way to spend the day!
Whether you are looking for a single day trail ride in California, a custom, all-expensed pack trip (letting us tend to all your cooking, camping, guiding, and outfitting needs), a guided fly fishing trip, or you just want to be packed in and dropped off into a remote backcountry spot and have us come back for you later, make Virginia Pack Station your summer vacation choice! We’re the pack station with the most experience in providing for luxuries in the backcountry.
Come visit the pack station and take a horseback (or muleback) ride, complete with sightseeing and photography, customize a vacation to any of the backcountry areas we service and let us take care of the work, or choose from one of three options and have your gear packed into anywhere in Yosemite or the Hoover Wilderness.
Had a great 2 and a half hour ride with Virginia Lakes Pack Outfit. I took the whole family, the ten of us, on a ride, some on horses some on mules, we all were very happy, safe, and well taken care of. The sights were beautiful and we got lots of great pictures. The kids loved it - it was the highlight of their trip! Would definitely recommend a ride with them. Thanks for a great day!!
– Melisa Wooten (Google)WOW! Amazing day :) My 13-year-old son and I went on the two-hour ride this morning. The weather was beautiful and our guide, Alma, was darling!! The horses were big gentle giants. This was only the 3rd time either one of us had ridden and we both agree we will be going back. What a great way to see some of the most beautiful nature in the world! They are reasonably priced and genuinely nice folks!! A memory I will treasure :)
– Cammi G. (Yelp)A great afternoon with VLPO. Our guide was Anna and she was personable and enthusiastic. My 9-year-old daughter and I signed up for a 2.5-hour ride. There were a few forms to complete, helmets (optional) to size and horses to saddle. The scenery was awe-inspiring and reminds you why you come to the High Sierras in the first place. This was a highlight of our trip.
– CM E. (Yelp)My husband and I enjoyed the trip of a lifetime. The entire crew took incredible care of us, shared the beauty of the Sierras and their knowledge of the region. Our guide took the time to point out great locations for photos and always made sure we felt safe and comfortable. We hadn't been on horses in years - she alleviated any fears we might have had. I would highly recommend this trip for anyone who wants to see the Sierras and even if you never knew that's what you wanted - go there!
