Winter Horseback Riding
By: Becky Webber, Ranch Coordinator
Riding horses in the winter is a lot of fun. Going for a ride over HoneyRock's miles of snow-covered trails can be very
relaxing, but at the same time very cold. For this reason, we often
cannot ride for long periods of time in the cold winter weather. A 20 or
30 minute trail ride is just about right before fingers and toes start
to go numb. Trail rides typically consist of 10 guests and two
HoneyRock wranglers to supervise and lead the way. Deer and other
wildlife can often be seen while riding through the beautiful woods at HoneyRock.

Sleigh rides are another popular winter activity. HoneyRock's
team of two Percheron draft horses pull a sleigh full of passengers
happily through the woods on winter evenings. Guests are provided with
wool blankets to help keep them warm and can talk or sing songs while
enjoying their sleigh ride.
