Journey more than five miles through the beautiful Southern California landscape and the Hidden Valley Wildlife Preserve. Our Two Hour Gaited Trail Ride experience is an opportunity to build your riding skills while experiencing the smooth, natural gait of our specially selected gaited horses.
​
Throughout the ride, your guide will provide coaching on transitioning your horse from a walk into its natural gait while helping you build confidence and improve your communication in the saddle. Most riders are able to experience the gait as they learn, though everyone progresses at their own pace.
Whether you're looking to improve your riding, experience our unique gaited horses, or simply spend more time exploring the nature preserve, this experience is the perfect adventure for returning and experienced riders.

2 hours of trail riding
