No Conflict Equestrian Trails
Let’s talk horse trails! Understanding the nuances and needs of recreational equestrian trail riders promotes trails with fewer conflicts, less maintenance, and more positive experiences. We start by traveling back in time (briefly) to explore the role of horses throughout history. Then we will delve into the unique needs and challenges of horse and rider on trails; multi-use trail conflicts; volunteer standards and expectations; long- and short-term maintenance and enforcement strategies.
Training typically lasts from two to three hours depending on the number of participants and length of discussions during and after the presentation. This class was created for all park personnel who wish to have a better understanding of recreational equestrian's needs and challenges while riding on public land.
