Due to the inherent risks of riding horses, we recommend that our guests wear a helmet. Since riding helmets need to be professionally fitted, we cannot provide them. Guests who choose to wear a riding helmet must bring their own.

To minimize the risk of having one of your feet getting caught in a stirrup, we recommend that you ride in cowboy boots. If you do not have cowboy boots, your shoes/boots must at least have:

• Smooth leather soles
• Heel
• Pull off easily
