Sleigh and Wagon Rides: The Horse Drawn Experience

It's time for wagon rides and draft horse driving workshops!

Let our gentle Percheron draft horse, Tracy, and teammate, Belgian Blaze, take you back in time as you travel by wagon or sleigh along quiet back roads.  Hop on the back of our vis-a-vis sleigh, which fits up to 5 adults, or our wagonette, which seats 8, and enjoy a relaxing ride.  We can also come to your special event with our larger wagon which holds 12-16 people.  Or combine your ride with a kayak, rock climbing or dog sled intro!

Interested in learning to work with draft horses?  Sign up for our hands on draft horse driving workshops, where you'll learn the basics of handling these gentle giants.  Great for all ages, you'll learn how to harness Tracy and Blaze, experience ground driving, and then learn how to hitch the team up to the sleigh, wagon or cart and go for a ride.
