Overview

About Trail Rides in Gouverneur, NY

Trail rides at Double L Ranch in Gouverneur, NY are the slower, quieter side of what we do. Open country, easy pace, real western feel — perfect for couples, families, and small groups who want to get outside and ride.

We see riders from Watertown, Canton, Potsdam, Ogdensburg, Fort Drum, and across the North Country come out for trail days. Some folks are seasoned riders looking for a relaxed afternoon. Others are stepping into the saddle for the first time. Both are welcome.

The point isn't to push the limit — it's to enjoy the country, take some pictures, and remember why people fall in love with riding in the first place.
