All rides are accompanied and the Trail Boss sets the pace.
We are not a single file "nose-to tail" outfit.
Our rides are geared
to the experience
level of the group.
For groups with novice or young riders, we take it easy.
For more experienced riders, we stretch it out a bit.
We can take up to 6 riders in a group. Larger group rides
can be arranged by special appointment.
Our terrain is mostly flat and rock-free, with beautiful
sections
through the ancient oak woodlands and Buffalo wallows,
up to the windmill and down to the stock
pond.
You may see deer, the brown hoot owl, our resident blue heron, a
fox, coyotes, many species of birds and other wildlife.
Riders must be at least 8
years old and
we have a weight limit of 240 lbs.
Each rider must be physically fit enough
to stop and turn his or her horse.
We do provide basic instruction and
a safety briefing before every ride.
You do need advance reservations.
