Horseback riding is so romantic - and good family fun, too! It's also great exercise - and not just for the horse.
Horseback riding is such a natural thing to do while you're in the Poconos. With all this outdoor beauty, being part of nature sitting in the saddle is a great way to discover the real Poconos.
There are miles and miles of scenic trails for you to enjoy in the beautiful Pocono Mountains. Some rides go through streams and wooded trails. Many of the stables listed here also offer pony and wagon rides.Most horse ranches offer lessons and pony rides and are open all year long.
Horseback Riding and Stables
Horseback Riding
Great trails and riding for beginners and novice riders. Open all year, reasonable rates.
Many offer overnight accommodations. Most cater to beginners and experienced riders alike. It's truly fun for the whole family!
Some of the ranches in the Poconos offer lodging packages along with horseback riding. Why there's even a famous Dude ranch here that brings the wild west to the east.
For honeymoon couples, Caesars Pocono Resorts offers a free voucher for horseback riding at one of the local stables. Discounts are available fo other guests.
