Annual Pony Express Re-Ride

June 18 @ 1:45 pm - 2:00 pm

Each June the National Pony Express Association recreates the Pony Express in a Commemorative Re-Ride, where letters are carried by horseback over the original trail that stretches from St. Joseph, MO to Sacramento, CA. The 1,966 mile, eight state event is conducted 24 hours a day over a 10-day period until the mail is delivered to its destination! On Tuesday, June 18th, riders will exchange the mail at Rock Creek Station’s East Ranch at approximately 1:45 p.m.

Arrive early, as the times are estimates and the Pony can be ahead or behind schedule. Go to nationalponyexpress.org/re-ride/ for a complete ride schedule and track the progress of the riders as it happens!

Vehicle park entry permit required.
