Guided Trail Rides for the General Public
These guided trail rides are on 125 acres of private land.

Now, including Trail Rides into the
National Forest
  • We provide guided trail rides for the general public. The rider does not need to have any previous riding experience to participate in these activities.
  • You must arrive 30 minutes before your scheduled ride time so that you can be signed in and on your horse at departure time.
  • Riders under the age of 18, are required to wear an equestrian approved riding helmet. You may wear your own helmet or one will be provided free of charge.
  • For your safety, the weight limit is  240 pounds. This is also judged by your height, if you are a tall person and carry your weight well, we will add a few pounds to the weight limit.
  • We cannot accept riders younger than 7 years old (10 years old for our half and full day rides), as we emphasize safety as our first priority.

  • Be advised our horses cannot safely carry riders weighing more than 240 pounds. We structure each ride to the ability of the least experienced in any particular group.

Our half day and full day rides journey into the George Washington National Forest.

All rides are led by a trail guide from
Fort Valley Stable.
