General Information
Before each of our trail rides, we provide all our guests a few minutes of horseback riding instruction.
We offer this to everyone, regardless of previous experience, in order to acquaint them
with the horse they are riding.
We feel you will enjoy your ride more and be a safer rider if you have some individualized guidance
right before your ride. In addition to taking away the memories of a beautiful experience,
you will have a chance to learn and reinforce skills that may stay with you long after your vacation is over.
