Trail Description Nice, easy, level slightly sandy with hardly any rocks in beautiful wooded trails. Barefoot horses accommodated nicely even at trot and lope (or canter)! Water and muddy conditions on trail path would require intense, heavy rainfall several days repeated a day or so before. Events will happen rain or shine...only cancelled for hurricane or lightning. Understand that most rain takes a path around the campground. 12 month Negative Coggins Required at Campground Front Gate. Campsites, facilities and most trails are available at all times. $5 day ride fee or free with paid campsite for both trails and facility use.
