At Equine Kingdom, your trail ride package lasts for a little over an hour.

  • You'll arrive about 5-10 minutes early, so you'll have time to sign a release form before you ride.
  • A group of up to 6 or 8 people can ride at a time, but smaller groups are preferred.
  • When your lesson/trail ride starts, you'll spend 5-10 minutes grooming and tacking up your horse. If your horses have already been used in a lesson prior to your ride, then you will get to go ahead and get right on to ride!
  • After preparing your horse, you'll head down to the riding arena to mount your horse.
  • Then you'll spend about 15 minutes in the riding arena, learning to start, stop, steer, turn, and maneuver your horse over and around obstacles.
  • Your lesson in the arena helps you learn about your horse, and get comfortable controlling your horse.
  • After your lesson, you'll spend the remainder of your hour (about 30 minutes) on a trail ride through the woods and around the property, maneuvering up and down hills, through the woods, and on a scenic tour around the farm to see all the horses!
  • Your riding time will be approximately 45 long for the trail ride!

Children and adults ages 3 and up are eligible to go on these trail rides. Children under 12 will have a handler walking next to the horse unless they have extensive riding experience. Rider must be 300 pounds or lighter. We do not allow children to ride with adults, it is unsafe.

*Make sure you wear long pants and closed toed shoes for comfort. Helmets are provided and required for ALL riders, NO exceptions!*
