Horseback Riding for All Experience Levels
At Double DAB, we believe horseback riding should be accessible, safe, and fun for all ages. That’s why every ride starts with a brief, beginner-friendly intro on how to ride, steer, and feel comfortable with your horse. Whether you’ve never ridden before or you’re returning for another ride, our experienced guides are here to make sure you feel confident and enjoy every moment.
We currently have around 80 horses on the property — 40 of which are trained specifically for trail rides. Many of our horses are born and raised right on the farm, and we take pride in our horse rescue efforts as well. All trail horses are trained with patience and care, making them well-suited for riders of all levels.
Our scenic trail rides wind through lush woodlands, grassy meadows, and open fields with breathtaking views of Lake Erie. For a truly magical experience, don’t miss our Sunset Rides, which offer a peaceful 1.5 to 2-hour journey as the sun dips below the horizon.
More Than Just Trail Rides
There’s more to enjoy at Double DAB than riding. Families and animal lovers of all ages are welcome to explore the property, meet our animals, and spend the day outdoors.
