Horseback riding is a popular activity with many campers. We have horses and English and Western tack on campus for use in our daily riding program. In our program there is room for the beginner, the camper wishing an occasional ride, and the advanced student who desires in-depth training in equitation and horse care. There is an orientation concerning safety and program goals for those campers who choose riding. Three periods per week are included in the fee. Campers wishing additional riding time can earn them at camp by joining the stable care group or make arrangements prior to the summer; earning extra riding time is preferred. After appropriate familiarization and practice in our spacious riding ring, those who qualify often take trail rides. At Ballibay there are a multitude of trails suited for long leisurely trail rides.
