JOIN US IN JUNE AND SEPTEMBER FOR

A YELLOWSTONE FLY FISHING RETREAT

THE HIGH COUNTRY SOCIAL


We’re excited to bring back our fly fishing retreats for 2027 in partnership with Hastings Fly Fishing Co.! This year, we’re offering two opportunities to join us in the Greater Yellowstone area, with a women’s retreat in June and a couples retreat in September.

From fishing Wyoming’s beautiful rivers and lakes to exploring the backcountry on horseback, these retreats bring together great fishing, good company, and a few unforgettable days in the mountains. Guests will spend a full day wade fishing, a full day fishing from a boat on the lake, and a full day horseback riding along the Snake River with opportunities to fish along the way. Evenings are spent back at camp enjoying western style meals and sharing stories around the fire.

Retreat dates, itineraries, pricing, and FAQ can be found further down on this page.

Guest Testimonials

“From the very first day, the staff and guides created such a welcoming and adventurous environment. Riding horses through Yellowstone and the stunning Bridger Wilderness was unforgettable - the views were breathtaking, and it felt like stepping into another world.Beyond the scenery, what made this trip so special were the people I met along the way. The camaraderie, laughter, and shared adventure created connections I'll treasure forever.”

“Wilderness Trails runs a fantastic operation. I'm an active equestrian with many years of experience and was looking for something other than the typical nose-to-tail tourist rides. I found Wilderness Trails via another social media site's equestrian sub and was very glad I did! This is the outfitter I will absolutely return to on my next trip to Teton.”

They made us feel like part of their beautiful family and couldn’t do enough to make our whole trip unforgettable. Great horses for all abilities, very knowledgeable horsemen and women, delicious food and fantastic riding country. Just perfection. Thank you!”
