TRAIL RIDES

​

Walking Ride- Our walking ride is a great way to 

                                           experience the true beauty of the

                                           Adirondack Mountains. Each ride

                                           last an hour and typically covers

                                           about 3 miles.

​

Fast Ride-  For the more experienced rider we offer 

                              trot and canter rides. These rides are by

                              appointment only and the ability of each

                              prior to the start of the ride.

                                          and offers something found nowhere

                                          else in the Northeast. Riders will

                                          obstacles, sorting them by color or

                                          pen. Get a true cowboy experience

                                          while staying safely within the Arena.
