About Our Riding Trails
Here at Splendor Farms we pride ourselves in offering the best trail riding facility in the area. We ride over 1,000 acres through creeks & woods, across big fields, and around lakes. We ride down to the National Historic river, the Bogue Chitto. We ride across different terrain on all our trails and never see the same tree twice! Deer, egrets, herons, and beautiful scenery are along every ride, even the occasional alligator and wild hog come across our rides! Our horses are some of the best around and we have horses from the gentlest old mare to the full of vinegar geldings....There is a horse here for everyone of any experience level!
Splendor Farms Trail Riding Rates:
- $60.00/person for a one hour trail ride.
- $75.00/person for a two hour trail ride.
- $90.00/person for a three hour trail ride
Ages 6 and up can ride on the one hour trail. Must be 11 and up to ride the two or three hour trails. However, we reserve the right to alter these age requirements based on an individual's maturity and riding experience level.
For example, we have had 9-year-old barrel racers do our two hour trails and 40 year olds who shouldn't go for more than an hour!
For inexperienced riders and children under eleven, we offer a one hour ride for $50.00/person. The one hour ride comes with a lesson to get you comfortable
with your horse before you go out on the trail.
Young children can ride in the arena for a dollar per minute, 20 minute minimum.

Trail Riding Photos & Comments:
"Had a great time at your farm today, thank you for having us.
Jessica said this was one of the best birthdays she has had."
- Christian C., December 2010

Ashley brought her daughter and their friends for a moms-daughters trail ride through the countryside and down to the Bogue Chitto River. The weather was perfect and the horses willing to trek through the woods even though they could smell the wild pig and her three babies. Oh, and don't forget the snake, that was exciting, too!
