Overnight Horse Trail: Grades 6-8

Welcome to the ultimate trail challenge! Did you know that Misty Mountain has over 1,000 acres of forest? Nestled deep in these acres are many miles of trails suited for our horses and ready for you to explore. Spend every day, and even a night, out on the trail. We will learn how to do some Equestrian First Aid, spot and avoid trail dangers and the ins and outs of packing a saddlebag. Advance your equestrian skills in riding and groundwork along with your camping skills, too! This horse-based camping experience is tailored for Intermediate and Advanced riders working on trotting or cantering. You are ready for this session when you can independently halt, steer at the walk and trot on the rail in good control. In this program, you will kick off your week in screened cabins. Cabins are weatherproof with screened windows to allow for a cooling breeze and to keep bugs out! Campers will have access to hot showers and flush toilets located in an area nearby.
