Horse Trail Maps

All of my Maps were GPS’d for the guests of Bumble Bee Ranch. They are for people on horseback or foot. You cannot travel these by jeep or UTV. All the trails start and stop on the ranch. If you are wanting to park on the ranch to utilize the trail, you will need to pay for Day Parking = $7 per vehicle for the day. You will then have access to our bathrooms and your vehicle will be protected. If you don’t want to park at the ranch, you can always park on BLM and connect to the trails that way. Parking outside the gates is still on private property. Please call with any questions - 623-374-0002. Thanks - Kelly

Please click on the trail names below to open up the trail maps for the one you are interested in.  As I do more, they will be added to the site.  I have been doing the GPS tracking with the phone apps "AllTrails" and "GAIA".   AllTrials is free to look at the trails, but you will need a subscription to download them.  GAIA requires a membership.  Bumble Bee Ranch makes no money off these GPS'd trails.  They are simply for your enjoyment and lots of blood, sweat and tears on my part.   Look up the member "Bumble Bee Ranch" and follow me to get to my maps.  Sincerely, Kelly

This ride is for those that hate easy boring rides. Lots of butt pucker cliff hangers. I didn't enjoy it very much, but I don't like rides that if my horse slips, I or my horse could die. Probably will never do it again.
