Little Riders
To ride outside the arena, children must be mature and large enough to safely control their horse on the trail — we look at the child’s size, coordination, and attitude on horseback.
Typically children are ready to ride at about age eight. Children who are not yet ready to trail ride will ride with a wrangler in the arena.
Please feel free to contact us to discuss any questions you might have about your child’s readiness to ride. Safety is our first concern. We do provide helmets for our young riders.
Riding “double” is extremely dangerous, and is not practiced here.
