“Where the horses still run free”
Wild horses still roam freely in the Pryor Mountains outside of Lovell, Wyoming. This herd of horses is very special because of its Colonial Spanish American heritage. This tough little horse, derived from the horses of Portugal and Spain, has been present in this rugged mountain area for nearly 200 years. If lost, the herd cannot be restored; and so its biological viability, together with its history, must be preserved. It is the purpose of the PRYOR MOUNTAIN WILD MUSTANG CENTER to do just that. The Pryor Mountain Wild Mustang Center is a public, nonprofit 501(c)(3) educational institution, unique in purpose and location. The Center is working towards becoming the foremost wild horse educational institution in the world. Your donations can help!
Be sure to stop in at the mustang visitor center to find out where the mustangs are. The people running the visitor center are so friendly and knowledgeable! Beautiful drive and when you see the mustangs you can walk up to the herds to get great pictures. Free to drive out and check out the mustangs.
Once we were sure we were in the right place, we had a fun time looking through the visitor center and talking with the very nice lady who was running the shop today. She was extremely informative and helped us with a map. We had just stopped by to see the mustangs and let Lily go to the visitor center. It ended up unhooking the Jeep and taking it on a journey to find the mustangs out in the wild!! Bob was ready to take a side trip so we did. We did not find a single wild mustang but we did find the secret of the Pryor Mountain Range!!! They have what. I fondly called the mini Grand Canyon!!! For miles around us it was a phenomenal site! No entrance fee, no crowds, but picture after picture of amazingly beautiful sites! We spent a while just walking around being blown away! There is much more to this place than just the horses but maybe next time we can find them too.. All I can say is wow, this was a must see for us!!! Go in, get a map and drive to the Devil's Canyon Overlook! You may get lucky and see the mustangs but I'll guarantee you'll get lucky with the sites!!!
