10 Horseback Riding Tours in Georgia That You Shouldn't Miss

September 25, 2021 Emerita Lamoureux

While Atlanta is the anchor and capital of Georgia, you can aim in any direction to find distinctly different regions – from the tail of the Appalachians in the North to the rolling Piedmont hills and on down to the seaside marshes in the East. Atlanta lays claim to the state’s number one attraction – Stone Mountain State Park. They say it best - “Serious fun. Endless adventure.” Just 15 minutes from downtown, the world’s largest exposed granite dome is surrounded by 3,200 acres of natural beauty and stimulating activities for every member of the family – sky rides and hiking paths, laser shows and pedal boats along Stone Mountain Lake. Golfers tee it up, while red foxes dash across the fairways in a state where the Masters Golf Tournament creates revered green-jacket memories every year. It’s a long downhill ride down to historic Savannah, a ‘stone’s throw’ from the Atlantic and a virtual step back in time to Southern architecture and stately squares. St. Simon’s and Jekyll Islands offer barrier island beauty and a wonderful combination of outdoor activities, historic sites and artistic culture. Originally the private winter playground of wealthy northeasterners, Jekyll Island stretches along 10 miles of coastal beaches and inland marshes. Cycling and walking paths wind under moss-laden oaks, and a tour of Millionaire Village takes you back to those Cornelius Vanderbilt and J.P. Morgan days. The kid-friendly Summer Waves Water Park adds man-made fun to natural water sport activities. Coastal golf courses and sophisticated St. Simon’s Island appeal to moms, dads and vacationing couples.

I purchashed a mare from Curtis and his crew. She was a little older than we both thought and pregnant! Curtis offered right away to bring me another horse (all the way to Florida) but we liked her so much we kept her. She is everything we asked for and quiet and safe. I would recommend doing business with this stables and they work hard to align the right horse with the right rider. They are also very flexible which made doing business with them a pleasure!

My wife and I truly enjoyed both the horseback ride and the ziplines. All the employees were awesome and made for a great time. And the zipline tour was a hoot. Highly recommend the Ride a Horse & Zip - Saddle & Soar package. It was awesome and a great deal!

What a wonderful experience! Keeve and Bob were very friendly and professional and gave thorough instructions before our trail ride. They took time to pair the horses to the guests and took us on a beautiful tour through the woods, beside a creek and waterfalls. We also walked along the edge of a lake, and Keeve took pictures of everyone in our group and sent them to us the next day. I feel like the price is fair for the experience. I will definitely go again!

A hot lunch will be provided for all the campers. After lunch if all the kids are comfortable we will go for a mini trail ride on our property.

Very tame horses, relaxing hour ride. They also breed miniature horses, there was a cute baby when we visited. My son is afraid of horses so it was perfect. People are great, we had a good time
