Spend some time on horseback during your next visit to Chestnut Ridge!

We'll provide horses, tack, helmets, and expert guides for you and your party. Enjoy 362 acres of beautiful, rolling hills and green, mature forest while riding the trails at Chestnut Ridge.

Riders are welcome either as part of a retreat group or by appointment. We are happy to make arrangements to ride any day of the week. We welcome families, churches, or any other group to come enjoy a day in the saddle at Chestnut Ridge. We also enjoy helping scout groups working towards horse related merit badges.

Descriptions, dates and details of the Spring 2010 horse riding program offerings.

Is there a girl in your life who loves horses? A girl who you wish, just for a little while, had someone else to gab about horses with? Well then this retreat is for her! Jo Anna will host the “horse slumber party” for 10 horse girls in grades 4-8. Girls arrive at 4 pm to settle in and get ready for the first horseback ride of the party. Friday night we will have dinner, s’mores over a campfire, and plenty of girl time! Saturday is all horse, all the time...well except for eating. We will play games on horseback, go for long rides, do some grooming and just enjoy being outdoors with horses. Pick up is at 4 pm on Saturday.
