Places to Ride

Going to a new trail can be intimidating. Will there be trailer parking? Enough room to turn around? Is the terrain too rough? Are there hazards for horses?

Unlike websites that have lots of trails but not much information about each one (and which are often geared to hikers), our goal is to provide detailed information about trail systems specific to horseback riders. We check out these trails ourselves in order to give you the information you really need. This is time-consuming so, as a result, we don’t have many trails listed, but each one is very comprehensive. As time goes on we will add more.
