a space for women to connect, just the way they are.
not what you ride, how you live.
you belong here.
We believe being a cowgirl is not defined by what you ride, but by how you live. It is an attitude shaped by resilience, connection, and community, grounded in grit and guided by grace.
Cowgirls Gathering celebrates personal growth, courage in uncertain moments, and the balance between strength and style. It is a place where women from all walks of life come together to learn, ride, laugh, shop, dance, and connect, both in and out of the saddle.
Set against the backdrop of our remarkable landscape, the Gathering creates space for meaningful connections with each other and with the horses that shape our lives. Whether you are a lifelong horsewoman or simply drawn to the spirit of the cowgirl way of life, you belong here.
We invite you to join us in celebrating who you are, just as you are, and to be part of something truly special.
more than an event,
a way of being together.
Three threads run through every Gathering. They are what women come for, and what they take home.
the riding
Education from instructors who meet you where you are, not where they think you should be. The kind of riding week that changes how you sit in the saddle.
the gathering
Long lunches, late dinners, fires that go on past midnight. The space between sessions where the actual friendships form.
what you carry
A quieter confidence in yourself, your horse, and your capacity to be a beginner again. A network of women who know your name.
the mini gathering, 2026
Five immersive days, intentionally smaller than our signature Gathering. Built for women who want time, depth, and a calm, supportive environment to learn in.
