WALK - TROT - CANTER PROGRAM
1 to 1- 3/4 HOURS
Trot/Canter Trail Description
For our thrill seekers, we've added the Walk-Trot-Canter program.
The trail utilizes the beautiful Flame Azalea/Fern Forest combo trail going through the upper open meadow and pasture at a trot, canter or whatever you can sustain. We don't guarantee you can get your horse to trot and sustain it. That skill is dependent upon you.
Upon arrival, you will complete the Assumption of Responsibility form and then we present the safety demonstration. Then, you have time in the ring where you demonstrate your trotting and cantering skills before going on the trail.
If the your skills are not up to doing the Trot/Canter ride, for safety, you will not be permitted to do the Trot/Canter ride. Please understand, there is a dramatically increased risk to do this ride and we don't want someone to get injured for a few moments of trotting/cantering.
You must be an experienced rider and at least 13 years old. If you are not permitted to do the trot/canter, you are still obligated to pay for this trail but you will do it at a walk. No exceptions.
Safety and Training
Plan an extra 45 - 60 minutes, in addition to your trail time, for the safety and training program. You are shown how the horses have been trained, some about safety as well as horse personality. Then you are given an opportunity to try your horse out in the ring.
