We are passionate about horses and deeply understand the therapeutic benefits of being around them. However, due to the open and natural setting of our trail rides at the ranch, we do not operate in a controlled or enclosed riding environment. We also recognize the specialized training, coaching, and equipment necessary to safely accommodate therapeutic and adaptive riding.
For the safety and well-being of our horses, riders, fellow guests, and guides, we reserve the right to limit participation in our horseback riding experiences if we determine that any factor may pose a risk. Riders must be able to independently and promptly follow guide instructions, as well as mount and dismount without assistance.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us—we’d be happy to discuss them with you.
