Our Story

The first Sombrero stable was located at the current Estes Park site. In those days, trail rides went for $1.25 and competition was stiff with over a dozen other riding stables in the area. Lots of enthusiasm, buckets of sweat and much determination fueled the fire that led to Sombrero's growth and expansion over the years Rex chose to settle into the Estes Park area along with his wife, Queeda (Pat's sister). Queeda played an active role in the development of the business from the beginning of its existence. Over the years Sombrero has expanded from the Estes Park stable which opened in 1959. It was only a year later that the Grand Lake stable was added. Over the years additional Sombrero locations have been added including Meeker, Glen Haven, Steamboat Springs and Allenspark. Today, the Sombrero, Inc. operation, and Hi-Country Stables, Inc., offer visitors the opportunity to experience riding–as early settlers did–in the natural beauty of the Colorado Rockies. You won't find any souvenir shops or commercialism at the Sombrero or Hi-Country Stables, Inc. locations. Sombrero Ranches, Inc. and Hi-Country, Inc. have been very careful to preserve the land in order to share the dramatic beauty with their guests. All or part of this operation is conducted on public lands under special permit from the U.S. Bureau of Land Management.
