You Can Go On A Magical Snowy Sleigh Ride In Arizona This Winter

Baby, it's cold outside.

Can you imagine yourself snuggled up with your SO, riding in a horse-drawn sleigh through a blanket of snow? We can. This winter, you can take a sleigh ride in Arizona, perfect for a weekday escape. 

Historic Hitchin' Post Stables is a working ranch located in Flagstaff, Arizona. When snow hits the ground, this ranch turns into a winter wonderland complete with sleigh rides and horseback riding. 

Magical sleigh rides cost $45 per adult and complimentary hot cocoa or apple-cider is available to warm you up afterward. They're available Wednesday through Sunday starting December 1.

We can't help but sing "Let it snow." When you're done with your ride, you can get cozy by the fire and enjoy a cowboy-style dinner if you opt for the dinner and sleigh ride experience.

It'll cost between $80-$90 depending on whether you want chicken or steak for dinner. It's a romantic date night idea fitting for a snowy escape.

If surprising your SO with a sleigh sounds like your cup of tea, you can make a reservation for a private experience. The price varies, so plan ahead.

Your 45-minute ride will take you through nearby Coconino National Forest and back. Snuggle up and enjoy the sleigh bells ring as you embark on an unforgettable adventure.  

It's possible that there may not be a lot of snow on the ground, but that's okay. Each sleigh has a set of wheels tucked away so that your magical journey can continue on. Be sure to check weather conditions before you go, so you can get the most out of your day. 

Are you ready for the most magical time of the year yet? If you're just as excited as we are, you can also check out this massive German Christmas Market coming to Arizona. It's going to have cute little knick-knacks and authentic Austrian and German treats.
