Can you think of a more perfect way to welcome the holidays than by taking a sleigh ride? Imagine being tucked into a thick, warm quilt and gliding through the snow behind mammoth draft horses as your nose tingles in the crisp winter mountain air. You can make this dream come true at a half-dozen sleigh ride outfits in the Leavenworth and Methow Valley areas of Washington State. Outfitters offer everything from intimate rides in a two-person cutter sleigh to dinner sleigh rides under the stars. With
prices averaging $10 to $15 for adults, and less for children, it’s an affordable, low-impact winter outing and one that will linger in your senses for many years to come. For more information, call the Washington Outfitters and Guides Association at 509-962-4222.
