TAG Extreme Event Rating 5/10 Easy/Moderate - Gitty Up! (Large Live animals, trail riding, trotting or galloping horses.)







Background Info:

This event includes a 1.5 - 2 hour trail ride and a class on horse care, washing, grooming, feeding, and tacking.

Few things are as relaxing as a guided trail ride through the Florida wilderness. Imagine spending a quiet afternoon riding on a shaded trail through a Florida park. You might encounter deer, fox, coyote, or even a wild pig!

Don't worry - Our trail horses have seen it all and will carry you safely back to the ranch. As safety is our number one priority, all trails are guided by R&R staff. This ensures that you won't get lost and you will never go faster than you planned.

Safety helmets are available for everyone and are required for guests under the age of 18.

Western synthetic saddles are commonly used, but English saddles are also available.





Rules:
Riders under 18 must wear a helmet!
You must be comfortable sitting on a horse and being around large animals!
No Double Riding, Single Riders per horse only!
Max Weight Limit 300lbs!

       It's a nice easy ride for beginners, but would like to see an event for advanced riders. 
    • Paid TAG Member 6/09
       What an awesome day/event this was. From the weather, to the facilities, to my old and new TAG friends, to the horses, to the BBQ afterwards, all added up to Five Gold Stars! This is yet another event that I'm adding to my "Hell yeah, I'll do that again" list, even the falling off of the horse - lol.
