Horseback Riding

Visit Tanglewood Stables to see all of Tanglewood's natural beauty while riding a horse. You will travel over miles of dedicated bridle paths among Tanglewoods woodlands. For larger groups an old fashioned hayride may be just the right activity to bring everyone together. Horse drawn carriages, riding lessons, and horse boarding are also available by reservation. Come and experience the tradition and charm of the Tanglewood Stables! Learn more about Tanglewood Stables
