Discover the Scenic Field Horseback Riding Experience at Mabry Farm

Mabry Farm Equestrian Center offers guided open field riding experiences on our scenic 20-acre pasture property located directly beside Mabry Park. This peaceful setting provides wide-open space, natural views, and a relaxed atmosphere that highlights the beauty of the surrounding park and countryside.

Rides take place across open pasture rather than narrow wooded trails, creating a calm, spacious riding experience that allows guests to enjoy fresh air, expansive views, and an easy pace. This style of riding is ideal for beginners, families, and riders seeking a scenic experience that focuses on enjoyment and connection with the horse.

Mabry Farm Equestrian Center partners with King Equestrian Center to offer these riding experiences. Through this partnership, King Equestrian Center provides experienced staff, well-suited horses, and professional guidance, while the Mabry family offers the land and setting that make this experience unique. Together, both operations work to maintain high standards of safety, horsemanship, and horse welfare.

This collaboration enables Mabry Farm Equestrian Center to offer a thoughtfully managed riding experience that combines professional equine care with the peaceful, open landscape surrounding Mabry Park.

How the Ride Works!

Field rides at Mabry Farm are a one-hour guided experience designed to prioritize safety, comfort, and enjoyment for every rider.

Cost: $80 per person
Age Requirement: 16 years and older
Duration: Approximately 60 minutes total

First 10 minutes:
Guests begin by signing required waivers, being fitted with approved riding helmets, and reviewing basic safety guidelines with staff. Horses are then brought out, and riders are assisted with proper mounting.

Next 10 minutes:
Before heading into the field, riders receive hands-on instruction covering essential riding basics. This includes how to start and stop, steer, maintain safe spacing between horses, perform an emergency stop, and follow group riding etiquette. This ensures that all riders feel confident and prepared before the ride begins.

If at any point during this instructional period the trainer determines that a rider is not yet ready to safely participate in the open field portion, the ride will continue within the arena for the remainder of the session. This decision is made solely in the interest of rider safety, horse welfare, and the safety of the group.

Final 40 minutes:
When deemed appropriate by the trainer, the remainder of the experience is spent riding through the open fields of Mabry Farm alongside Mabry Park. Riders enjoy a relaxed, guided field ride at a steady pace in a scenic, open setting.

This structured process allows riders of varying experience levels to have a positive, safe experience while maintaining clear safety standards for all participants.
