Itinerary
We believe in our guests getting hands-on with the horses. First, you will learn how to groom your horse and learn about him and his past. Each of our horses have unique personalities as well as histories as retired racehorses and retired show horses.
Next, you’ll learn how to saddle up. We offer English and Western dressage. If you’ve ridden before, try something new.
Finally, you will ride in our 100×150 ft lighted arena. We will teach you the basics so that you will be able to safely maneuver your horse around the arena, around obstacles and over ground poles. Horseback riding is a lot more than just sitting there!
When we’re done riding, we’ll unsaddle the horses, groom again and the feed them treats for a job well done. If it’s hot, we might even give them a nice hose down.
