Northeast Tennessee Horseback Trail Rides
Dogwood Springs Ranch . . .
provides a great opportunity to see the beauty of the Tennessee mountains. Our horseback trail rides climb up into the mountains surrounding the ranch. You will see the mountains up close and discover the rich heritage of the area. This area is known for deer, fox, squirrels, a wide variety of birds, and other animals. There may be a surprise or two along the way. Not only will you enjoy the trees and the scenic landscape, but you will experience the peacefulness of the land and enjoy a wilderness trail ride on beautiful, top notch, horses!! And there's our little donkey, Jenny. She's just a pet, and loves people!
Our guides know the mountains and the animals. They have years of experience with horses. You will enjoy hearing about the mountains, people, and history, and just have an all around great time!
As the only horseback trail ride facility in northeastern Tennesse, we strive to make your horseback ride a special experience. The trails are well maintained. The 1 hour "Warrior's Trail" provides some variety of trails and takes you to the top of the ridge! (approx. 2,800 feet!). Longer or short rides can be provided on request.
Our guides will show you how to ride in the mountains while staying safe and enjoying the beauty. Each ride starts with a short hands-on-lesson; the proper techniques for checking your horse and tack, getting on and off safely and handling the horse to make your ride safe and enjoyable.
The northeast Tennessee area has many beautiful features. Watuaga lake is only 2 miles form Dogwood Springs Ranch. You can rent a boat for fishing or just cruise the lake - over 120 miles of shoreline. The mountains are very beautiful anytime of the year. During sping and summer months the mountains are green and lush. The fall brings cooler weather and the mountain's trees burst into gold and red. The trails around the ranch look like gold carpets. During the winter months the the evergreen trees stand tall. When the snow comes the white dust presents another beautiful sight. Ski resorts are located nearby. And on horseback you get a different perspective of this part of the country.
