A Wyoming Glamping Experience: Paintrock Canyon Ranch

Ranchlands has announced the opening of their new luxury guest ranch, Paintrock Canyon Ranch, sprawling across 80,000 acres in the scenic Bighorn Mountains of northern Wyoming. This exclusive ranch offers guests a chance to dive deep into the authentic ranch life amidst stunning natural beauty. Whether it’s horseback riding through vast landscapes, fly fishing, hiking, or simply soaking in the wilderness, Paintrock Canyon Ranch promises an unparalleled outdoor experience.

Guests can stay in large, elegantly furnished safari-style tents that offer a blend of nature and comfort, featuring full-sized beds and all the essential furnishings. A private chef enhances the stay with delicious meals prepared using Ranchlands beef and locally-sourced produce and dairy.

“The goal is for guests at the Paintrock Canyon Ranch to leave with a deep understanding of the rich history of the area and the important role that ranching plays in restoring our natural resources, while exploring nooks and crannies that only a few people have ever seen,” said Duke Phillips III, Founder of Ranchlands.

The Paintrock Canyon Ranch headquarters is located at the western base of the Bighorn Mountains. The ranch’s range extends toward Cloud Peak, the highest mountain in the Bighorns, and is characterized by creeks, springs, meadows, and canyon walls reaching thousands of feet above. The terrain changes from deep orange and burgundy sandstone hills to monolithic rock formations to high mountain meadows, pine forests and lakes.

“It is a stark contrast to the Chico Basin and Zapata Ranches, and is teeming with rich populations of elk, deer, turkey and bobcat,” said Phillips III. “Paintrock Creek, the largest aquifer coming from the Bighorns, is home to some of the best trout fly fishing in northern Wyoming.”
