Adventurous Trail Experiences
Sarasota, Lakewood Ranch, Manatee
Unique, exhilarating and fun 1-3 hour & half day trail riding experiences on gorgeous, kind, and spirited horses, at beautiful properties with ecological wonders, and homemade, tantalizing meals and decadent drinks. On the well-maintained trails and ‘off-trail’ areas we explore, you will see native flora, gorgeous rivers and streams, stunning Florida wetlands and swamps, hundreds of species of exotic birds, wild animals and gators, ethereal pine and oak forests dripping in Spanish Moss, and tranquil meadows.
