Excursions

Desert Ecology Walking Tour

"Mini" Jeep tour plus walking tour up scenic "movie pass". Experience the tastes and smells of the Sonoran desert plants and cacti, learn about the folklore and history of the area, and experience ancient Native American artifacts such as pottery shards and grinding mortars. Bring your cameras to capture the beautiful wildlife, nature, and artifacts that you’ll encounter in this natural and historic desert hike. Western style lunch at the ranch to follow.

Quick Draw Shooting Tournament and Freestyle Target Shooting

Ride in open air classic Jeeps through the White Stallion Ranch to a singular Western experience. In front of the cinematic mountains of the Sonoran Desert you’ll find yourself in a showdown straight out of the wild west. Sign up for a bracket-style Quick Draw tournament, where flexibility, speed, and hair pull trigger will be measured by high-tech radar to see who wins the showdown. Or try your hand at front-loading rifles, revolvers and other classic firearms without the tournament at a freestyle target shooting. Western style lunch at the ranch to follow.

Spa Experience

At The Ritz-Carlton Dove Mountain Spa, treatments take a holistic, natural approach to health and wellness, designed to provide complete relaxation. This unique experience, paired with the resort’s beautiful setting, has made the spa a favorite with discerning travelers and a true wellness destination. YFC guests will enjoy a unique treatment experience as well as all-day (Saturday) access to all spa facilities including the Serenity Pool, locker areas, sauna, and steam room. A Lunch stipend is included for this excursion at the resort overlooking the pool and desert landscape.

Golf In The Shadow of Dove Mountain

The Golf Club of Dove Mountain is a signature course of the legendary champion and designer Jack Nicklaus. Come and play these challenging 18 holes (9 repeated due to re-design work) in the beautiful saguaro-covered foothills of the Tortolita Mountains. The golf course meanders through desert washes with stunning views, and the large greens feature plenty of movement. Lunch buffet at the Golf Club to follow.
