Horseback Riding Summer Camps

Horseback Riding Summer Camps for Kids & Teens

Whether you've never hopped aboard a horse or are a seasoned riding veteran, there's a horseback riding camp for you! Horseback riding summer camps, also known as equestrian summer camps, help campers improve their riding skills, learn more about horses, and take on the responsibilities of horse care. Campers socialize and make friends with other girls and boys who share their enthusiasm for horses. Activities are taught by experienced instructors who stress safety, proper techniques, and respect for animals and people. Horseback riding camps are a great place for campers to gain self-confidence, make new friends, and share experiences through the common love of horses.

Ages, Tuition, and Session Length at Horseback Riding Summer Camps

Overnight horseback riding camps typically offer instruction for campers between the ages of 8 and 18. Campers are typically grouped by age and ability level to ensure safety and an ideal learning environment.

Most horseback riding camps typically offer sessions of 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, or 7 weeks in length. The cost of each program varies considerably based on instructors, facilities, location, and affiliations. Families can expect to spend anywhere from $450 to $1,200 per week on their child's horseback riding camp experience.

Choosing the Best Horseback Riding Summer Camp

When considering horseback riding camps, parents should ask several key questions. Is horseback riding the only activity taught at camp, or are campers exposed to a variety of opportunities? How many hours each day are spent riding? How much experience do the instructors have? Is the camp accredited by the Certified Horsemanship Association?
