Equestrian Programs

Join us for Trail Rides, Arena Rides and English Riding Lessons from April through November. Come spend time at our beautiful barn and enjoy the pristine woodlands of our 550 acres of mountaintop property on horseback.

 English Riding Lessons
Private, semi-private and group lessons are available for beginner, intermediate and advanced riders. All instructors are trained by the Certified Horsemanship Association. Participants must be at least 8 years of age to take lessons.

Trail Rides
Trail rides and arena rides are scheduled seven days a week (morning, afternoon, and evening) for 2 to 8 participants at the discretion of the Riding Director. Once trail riders mount their assigned horses, our riding staff ensures that they can safely maneuver inside our riding ring before setting out. Trail rides take participants to the top of Cushion Peak for a breath-taking view of the surrounding area. Participants must be at least 10 years of age for trail rides.

Arena Rides
Arena rides combine a short lesson on horse grooming and tack with time in the saddle inside one of our riding rings. Depending on the participant’s experience and level of comfort, they may ride alone or have someone lead their horse. This is an ideal experience for first-time riders or anyone considering lessons. Participants must be at least 8 years of age for arena rides.
