Horseback Riding

Lessons

We offer riding lessons for riders new and advanced, young and old! If you have always wanted to try horseback riding, we have classes for people of all ages from 3 and up. Toddlers can become comfortable around horses and older kids can start learning riding basics with our lessons tailored to their ages and level. If you are an adult and have never had the chance to try horseback riding, we have both group and private lessons so you can try it out with your friends or on your own.

Forest View Farms also offers driving lessons for people who want to learn to drive a carriage or wagon. Contact us today to schedule your lessons. You'll be glad you did!

• All lessons are by appointment only.
• Lessons are taught weekly.
• All prices are per rider in the lesson.
• Helmets are REQUIRED for all lessons. Helmet rental is $1 per helmet.

English Riding Style

English riding is recommended for riders who want to compete in Hunter/Jumper and Eventing competitions. Many people also find it easier to move from English style riding to Western style riding, so learning English style riding is a good place to start for people who want to learn multiple styles. If you are not sure which style is right for you, contact us and we can help determine which style might be best for your interests.
