Activities

At Sunrise Recovery Ranch, we have long recognized that fitness and physical activity and the occasional break from the daily routine play key roles in promoting good health and contributing to the overall recovery process.  That is why we offer a variety of activities designed to help residents achieve a balanced life.

The three day retreats to Lake Arrowhead (from spring to early fall) are one of many rewarding activities offered by Sunrise Recovery Ranch.  Located in a cozy abode, in the San Bernadino Mountains, some 90 minutes from the Ranch, Lake Arrowhead is a paradise of outdoor recreation and year-round beauty.  This breathtaking alpine wonderland provides a refreshing change of pace.

In addition, hiking in the foothills has become a favorite pastime, giving residents the chance to relate with the natural surroundings.  Sunrise Recovery Ranch also has a swimming pool and hot tub, basketball, volleyball, game room, horseshoe, well-equipped gym, and equine therapy.

The Equine Therapy or Equine Assisted Growth and Learning Program (EAGLE) is a powerful and effective approach that has an incredible impact on the residents.  The program is not about riding or horsemanship.  Rather, the residents work with the horses as well as caring for them.  The program addresses a variety of mental health and human development needs including behavioral issues, attention deficit disorder, substance abuse, eating disorders, abuse issues, depression, anxiety, relationship problems and communication needs.
