Explore Nez Perce Country in Idaho by Horseback with a Guided Experience from Nez Perce Tourism

One of five federally recognized tribes in Idaho, the Nez Perce (or, the Niimiipuu) have inhabited the Pacific Northwest for at least 11,500 years.  They've lived on lands from the western shores of Oregon and Washington all the way to the high plains of Montana.  In Idaho, their current tribal lands can be found all across the north-central region of the state, primarily in the Camas Prairie region.  This is a beautiful area of Idaho and now you can see it like never before with an exclusive guided tour from the Niimiipuu people.  This horseback tour lets you enjoy the beauty of Niimiipuu country up close, and it's also a fascinating insight into the Niimiipuu culture that's lasted for thousands of years.
Operating out of Lapwai, Idaho, Nez Perce Tourism offers a unique opportunity to see Niimiipuu Country like never before.  They boast a variety of guided tours that are led by the Niimiipuu, but the horseback tour is an especially majestic experience that's worth checking out.
On this tour, visitors will ride through the beautiful landscape on the back of an appaloosa horse.  Not only does the appaloosa have a strong connection to the Niimiipuu that goes back centuries, but it's also considered the official state horse of Idaho.  This alone sets it apart from other horseback tours around the state!
The Appaloosa Horse Riding Session from Nez Perce Tourism is a three-hour excursion in the stunning natural setting of north-central Idaho.  Guided by an experienced wrangler, visitors will find themselves totally immersed in the sacred landscape of the Niimiipuu.
It doesn't matter whether you're a newbie to horseback riding or a seasoned rider, this is an experience that everyone can enjoy.  Along with being treated to a picturesque setting, riders will learn all about the fascinating history of the relationship between the appaloosa horse and the Niimiipuu.
The tour also includes a 90-minute presentation at Nez Perce National Historical Park.  Dedicated to telling the story of how the Niimiipuu adapted and survived on this land for thousands of years, every visit to this park turns into an incredible experience.
