WOW! Incredible! Awesome! are just some of the more common words we hear at Academy Riding Stables. From the oldest to youngest, the excitement we see from returning riders shows this is an experience you don’t want to miss. We look forward to meeting you and hearing your thoughts as you return from your own awesome ride!
Your adventure begins at our stables 45 minutes prior to ride time, where you are matched with a horse that will carry you on either a one- or two-hour ride. Whether you’re an experienced rider or just a beginner, our trained cowboys have the knowledge and skill to insure your ride is the best it can be.
As you wind along the scenic trails of historical Garden of the Gods, your eyes will feast on the natural beauty that inspired one of America’s most revered and timeless anthems, “America The Beautiful.”
Your adventure awaits at Academy Riding Stables. So come on over and experience Colorado the way they did over 100 years ago—on horseback!Not to be left out, kids under 8 years old can experience the fun of riding a pony at our enclosed pony carousel. Choose the pony and saddle up for a safe and fun alternative to getting left at the stables!
