Safe trail riding lessons package (available all year)
A series of three lessons where you will learn the ins and outs of safe trail riding and the basic riding techniques that you will need to know.

Lesson 1 (taught in the riding ring)- Consists of saddling and bridling your horse, mounting and dismounting, steering and stopping, turning your horse and asking your horse to go forward. Learn trail safety riding practices.

Lesson 2 - Prepare your horse for a fun 'practice' trail excursion (riding ring) where you will utilize the basic riding skills to ride confidently. Learn to handle problematic situations in a fun and safe environment. Practice riding safety practices and etiquette.

Lesson 3 - Ride your horse on a 20 acre field with your skills and safety practices accompanied by a guide - and enjoy!

Each safe trail riding lesson is approximately 1.5 hours in duration and a horse is provided. All three lessons must be completed within 30 days. We do not provide trail riding tours and does not offer trail riding lessons for larger groups.
