Trail Riding, Sun 6 May 2007
I recently took a group of boys age 8-11 on a trail ride at Bobby's Ranch, and we had a terrific time! I've been trail riding at a number of stables, and Bobby's is by far the most kid-friendly one I've visited. . They have a high ratio of guides to riders: we had 3 guides for 10 riders, and they use a lead line when needed. Everyone there is friendly, and the horses are good. Our trail went through scenic woodland and by a pond. When the ride was over, the boys all wanted to know if we could go again next weekend! (By the way, Bobby's Ranch is great for adults too -- I'm a very experienced rider and another another adult in our party had never been on a horse before, and we both enjoyed the ride tremendously.)
