Equestrians

While the number of equestrians that use the Ridge to Rivers trail system is quite small relative to other users, there are still some important things to remember if you are saddling up in the foothills.

Please help preserve the integrity of our trails by riding only when conditions are firm and dry.  

  • Horse hooves create deep “pock” marks in new or wet trails, making for an uncomfortable experience for mountain bikers and trail runners.

Ride only on designated Ridge to Rivers trails.

  • Riding cross country can lead to vegetation loss and eventual erosion.

Other Trail Users

  • Please remember that you should always yield when you encounter equestrians - it is far safer for both parties.  Please step to the downhill side of the trail and allow the horse to pass by.
