If there ever was five-star snowmobiling, this is it. Thousands of private acres, no crowds, many miles of guided trails and acre after acre of pristine powder. Our guests love taking a snowmobile tour to Godfather Lake, where they enjoy ice fishing, a hearty cooler lunch, and steaming hot chocolate. It’s a unique experience that really represents the best of Three Forks. All rides are privately guided, using environmentally-sound, four-cycle snowmobiles.
Builds strong core
Burns calories
Prevents seasonal affective disorder
Stress reduction
Boosts immune system
Prevents winter colds
Speeding through snowy, winding tracks is incredible fun. And even though you are sitting down, your body is working very hard to stabilize yourself and control the snowmobile under you. It’s a workout that doesn’t feel like one, and you can come away having burned a lot of calories. Being exposed to the bright natural light on cold, winter days can have an invigorating effect on your mood and general health. It is a known alleviator of the winter blues (Seasonal Affective Disorder), and can give your immune system the boost it needs to fight off winter’s ills.
Pick a snowmobile, choose a trail and go. It’s guaranteed to put a smile on your face.

Take Aim
Our Antler Ridge 3D Archery Course has 13 stations, which are an easy walk along the trail from the instruction station, where you can learn archery for the first time or hone your skills with our expert guides. The course was designed and constructed by Three Forks guides, so it’s especially customized for the ultimate ranch experience. We offer compound bows and recurve bows — and plenty of arrows.
WATCHTake Aim
Nestled in a picturesque Aspen valley, the Elk Ridge Sporting Clays course offers 12 shooting stations designed for the novice to expert. When your guides have fine-tuned your shooting, and you have a sufficiently bolstered ego from training on the Boone and Crockett Course, your personal guide will give you a tour through the 50-shot or 100-shot Pope and Young course to test and strengthen your abilities.
WATCHThe South Fork Shooting Complex is located in an amazing setting under a covered shooting house that offers fun, rain or shine. It has rifle targets from 50 to 1000 yards and an exciting and interactive handgun range. We provide a variety of rifles and handguns and give our guests a comprehensive lesson in the operation and safe use of firearms, from our professional and knowledgeable guide staff. It’s a fantastic way to be introduced to the shooting sports for beginners and a challenge for the seasoned shooter.
WATCHIt’s your turn to take the reins. Three Forks Ranch has a fine complement of horses for your riding pleasure no matter your level of experience. Trail riding is always an option, and our miles of scenic trails offer insider-only access to this stunning part of the country. Our wranglers take you off the beaten path to show you our Ranch’s hidden treasures — stunning natural beauty, rich historical detail, and vistas that will linger in your mind’s eye for years to come.
WATCHExplore on Foot
Perhaps the best way to experience the natural beauty of Three Forks is on foot. A guided hike, completely personalized to your abilities and goals, enables you to step back in time at the historic homesteads of South Fork Road, hear elk bugling during their late summer mating season, and scan stunning 360-degree views with no human development in sight.
WATCHAdventure at Your Speed
Whether you crave the rush of speeding down the mountainside on your bike, or you prefer a quiet afternoon cruise to spot flora, fauna, and wildlife, a ride with one of our experienced guides is sure to show you a side of Three Forks Ranch that you can only get on two non-motorized wheels. We offer wide open roads for the novice and experienced alike. If it’s exercise you’re craving, you have plenty of road to conquer. If it’s a relaxing afternoon you desire, we can do that, too. Remember, you choose your adventure here at Three Forks Ranch!
WATCHBask in Nature
Nestled in the Sierra Madre Mountains, Three Forks Ranch is a sanctuary for thousands of species of wildlife, birds, trees, and flowers. Our wildlife tours are hands-down the best way to experience both the beauty of the property and the diversity of flora and fauna that call it home.
WATCHRiding for the brand has been a way of life in the west for 150 years. Be a part of that heritage and spend a day riding with our seasoned team. Guests go along with the cowboys as they take care of the cattle. You may be moving cattle to better grazing or riding and checking the health of the herd. Views, sights and sounds surround you, as you become a cowboy who is riding for the brand.
WATCHAMERICA'S FINEST TROUT STREAM is here, waiting for you. On our pristine Little Snake River, catching a perfect cutthroat, tiger, brown, or rainbow trout is just one cast away.
We pride ourselves on offering guests expert guiding and instruction for all our outdoor and wellness activities.
WATCHYour Private Mountain in Colorado
Private Skiing. You read that correctly. Our mountain is your mountain. We limit the “crowd”. Three Forks Mountain, blanketed by hundreds of inches of snow every year, boasts 1,100 vertical feet with 20 runs for every level. Its natural cruisers, bumps, steeps, open meadows, and majestic tree lines make for a world-class experience. During the design phase, former Olympians “tested” the mountain for us — and it left them breathless and begging for more.
While some might consider snowboarding a hybrid of skiing and skateboarding, at Three Forks Ranch we just call it awesome. But the real game changer? Snowcats - our heated snowcats will whisk you to the summit in no time. No lifts, no lines, no hassle. It’s your private mountain to conquer.
WATCHCross-Country Skiing in a Private Ski Resort
Come and enjoy many miles of well-groomed trails that crisscross Three Forks Ranch, offering exhilarating exercise and breathtaking vistas of our mountain paradise. With trails to accommodate everyone from novice to seasoned veteran, your personal guide will help you explore this unspoiled landscape at your pace.
WATCHPristine Powder
If there ever was five-star snowmobiling, this is it. Thousands of private acres, no crowds, many miles of guided trails and acre after acre of pristine powder. Our guests love taking a snowmobile tour to Godfather Lake, where they enjoy ice fishing, a hearty cooler lunch, and steaming hot chocolate. It’s a unique experience that really represents the best of Three Forks. All rides are privately guided, using environmentally-sound, four-cycle snowmobiles.
WATCHBeautiful Backcountry
If you prefer snowshoeing as your mode of transportation — just as the pioneers that explored these valleys so long before us — your guide will take you off the beaten path for a dose of backcountry beauty. It’s an equally serene and invigorating experience — typical of Three Forks.
WATCHCatching Cold
If you can dream it, you can likely do it here at Three Forks Ranch — and ice fishing is no exception. Originally just a hobby of some of our winter guides, guest interest inspired us to offer this thrilling activity throughout the season. We’re happy to accommodate your deepest fishing desires — even in the deepest of winter.
WATCHIt’s Going Down
Lodge & Spa guests consistently rank Thrill Hill, our tubing hill, as a favorite winter experience. As you fly down the slope in an inflated tube, you’ll scream like banshees — without fail, no matter whether you are 22 or 72. The best part? You don’t have to trudge back to the top! We drive you and your tube up the incline on a snowmobile. Pro tip: for the ultimate bonding experience, create a circle of tubes, hold on tight to your neighbors’ handles, and let the guides push you over the edge!
WATCHCoaching helps define the appropriate steps toward one’s optimal wellness by means of collaborative thinking, drawing from past experience and defining future goals. A coaching approach allows room to grow while experimenting with different strategies for personal wellness. The Three Forks staff provide data-driven assessments, which measure physical conditioning and serve as a baseline for a personalized plan toward a healthier you.
