The Experience

Connect with nature and yourself in a new and insightful way….through the eyes of the horse. Horses are truly magnificent and majestic creatures. Horses are amazing teachers and reflections of ourselves and our spirit. The experience at Equine Escapes is truly unique for each person. When you arrive, your experience will begin by an introduction to the herd and safety instructions. Shortly thereafter, your journey will begin in beautiful movements and connections on the ground with the horses and the bonding and relationship will begin. After your horse has selected you, additional bonding time will be available during grooming and quiet time with your horse while we prepare the for the ride.

To continue the experience, some horseback riding experience is necessary. Some instruction will be provided and a demonstration of basic horse riding skills must be shown. Basic riding lessons are available to prepare you for your journey on the horse’s back, however you must arrange for this ahead of time and come early on the day of your reservation.

During your riding experience in the natural wooded forest, we encourage you to keep your senses aware and your connection with your horse open. Open yourself to fully experience the journey….unsuspecting and ready…. and allow your horse to show you new things about nature, yourself and life!

For our longer rides, we will provide lunch and beverages. Please read the FAQs for what to bring and additional information about your experience.
