Nestled amidst the rugged and picturesque landscapes of Arizona, horse ranches dot the vast expanses, embodying the spirit of the American West. These ranches offer a unique and immersive experience, allowing visitors to escape the city life and embrace the tranquility of the desert.
Arizona covers 72.9 million acres; 42% of it is in Federal hand and 13% is governed by the State. Riders, both novice and experienced, can embark on trail rides that wind through canyons, mesas, and desert terrain, providing a true taste of the Wild West. In addition, equestrians can find various professional facilities specializing in reining, cutting, hunter/jumper, roping, pleasure riding, dressage, and more.
While Arizona is home to 142,000 domestic horses, there are still around 400 wild horses that can be found in various areas, including the Tonto National Forest and the Salt River region. These resilient wild horses, descendants of domesticated horses brought by Spanish explorers centuries ago, have adapted to the arid deserts and rugged terrains of the state.
Arizona's economy is a dynamic blend of diverse sectors contributing to its growth and resilience. As of 2023, Arizona’s GDP reached $362.2 billion. Traditionally known for its mining and agriculture industries, the state has evolved into a hub for technology and innovation, driving economic development in recent years.
