Dude ranches allow families to get away from modern times-cell phones, computer screens, and video games.

Dude ranch family vacations provide horseback riding as the main activity,but the programs differ. Some farmstays are working cattle spreads that incorporate guests into their work day. Many farmstays allow guests to help with chores. Guests can even help in cattle drives during specific times. Contact your chosen farmstay to find out when these occur. Naturally, you and your family are on vacation and are never obligated to do any work. Some farmstays offer only walking rides, while others allow trotting and loping as well. Most ranches offer instructions for beginners. Many farmstays offer overnight pack trips, often at an extra charge, while others may focus on pleasure riding in breath-taking country. Whether you are a beginning rider wanting lots of support, or an old hand looking for a challenge, there are ranches that can meet your needs. Farmstay vacations are very rewarding get-a-aways for families and allow families to get back to basics in their family relationships.We receive many personal accounts of the incredibly wonderful experiences people have on these type of family adventures.

Farmstays are often times combined with other types of family adventures. Bill Dvorak in his article written for Family Adventure Magazine, "Family Vacation Dilemma?...Try a Little Combo Magic" discusses this trend in family adventure vacations. Dvorak says in his article, "families want to experience as many activities as possible during their valuable and short-lived vacation time. Rather than going to a single destination and focusing on one activity, these family travelers now want to try out several adventures in one week." Bill Dvorak's article can be seen at www.famtrav.com/articles/dilemma.html. Check out this wonderfully written article on combo family adventures.
