May Horseback Riding: What to Expect

  • No horseback riding on check-in and check-out days.
  • All rides are paced for the least experienced rider in the group, and if children are riding, the ride may be walk-only. Trail conditions also determine whether trotting and/or loping will be allowed.
  • This event does not include cattle working. If you are interested in our Cattle Sorting Clinic, consider booking one of our week-long summer stays occurring mid-June to mid-August.
