Guided Trail Rides

Scenic horseback riding in Raleigh, NC.

Off-Site Locations for All Day Rides

Feel free to bring bottled water and/or cameras with you. We recommend you wear long pants and closed toed shoes. Shorts are okay, if you don't mind possible chafing from the saddle.

Please note that, depending on the number of riders, it may take 15 to 45 minutes for us to give a brief riding demonstration, get everyone up on their horses, and adjust their stirrups before the start of each ride. However, there's no need to arrive in advance of your scheduled ride time. We simply want to make you aware that it takes time for us to get everyone ready to ride, so you'll be at our farm a little longer than the 1 or 2 hours that you are scheduled to ride. In any case, your ride doesn't officially begin until everyone is mounted and the horses leave the barn headed for the trail head.

Reservations and a $40 deposit are required to ensure availability.
