Trail Description

Available upon request for children as young as 2 to ride in the ring with the parent leading the child on his horse by a lead line (like a dog on a leash). The ring area is about half the size of a football field.

The child or children taking turns have 30 minutes in the ring on a horse being led by a parent. You may have several children take turns during your ring ride time. But you do need a form completed for each child riding on the horse.

If all you want to do is take pictures with smaller children, generally there's no charge.

Safety

You need 2 adults for very small children, 3 and younger. One to lead the horse, the other to walk beside the child holding his leg for stability.

The rate for your ring ride is the same regardless of whether you ride 30 seconds or 30 minutes.

RING RIDES LED BY STAFF OR
WITH STAFF ASSISTANCE - 15 MINUTES
