This Season's Ranch News: New Arrivals and What's Ahead

Author:

There's always something new happening at Lone Mustang Ranch, and this season is no exception. The herd has grown with a handful of new foals, and it's been a joy watching them find their legs in the pasture — visitors this season may get to see them up close during quiet turnout hours. On the facilities side, we've been busy freshening up the barn and giving the pastures some extra attention, so both horses and riders are set up for a comfortable season ahead. A few new horses have also joined our riding string, each one settling in and getting to know the trails. Looking ahead, we're putting together a calendar of seasonal rides and small events for guests and regulars alike — keep an eye out for updates here on the blog as details are confirmed. As always, the best way to catch the latest is to stop by, say hello, and see what's new for yourself

good to know

Do you offer horseback riding for people with no experience?

Yes! Our lessons are tailored for beginners—you don't need any prior experience. Your instructor will help you get comfortable with the horse, teach you the basics of horse handling, and ensure that your ride is safe and enjoyable. We start with calm exercises in the arena in the Western riding style, which provides a comfortable and stable seat.

Do I need to book in advance?

Yes, all rides are by appointment only. This allows us to plan our sessions better, match you with the right horse and instructor, and have everything ready for your arrival. It's best to call or message us a few days in advance—especially during the busy summer season.

Do you offer rides for children?

Yes, we welcome children aged 7 and up for safe, instructor-led rides. For younger children, we offer lead-line rides—gentle horseback rides led by a guide. We focus on positive experiences, patience, and having fun, so kids can build confidence and trust in both the horse and the activity.

What should I bring or wear for the ride?

You don't need any specialized riding gear. Long, comfortable pants (like leggings or sweatpants) and sturdy, hard-soled shoes with a slight heel—preferably covering the ankle—are perfectly fine. We provide safety helmets on-site, but you are also welcome to bring your own.

Can we come over just to see the horses?

Yes, we would love to have you! If you just want to visit the ranch, see the horses, chat, or look around, please let us know beforehand. We want to maintain a peaceful environment for our animals and a comfortable experience for our guests, so all visits must be scheduled in advance.
