Frequently Asked Questions

What's the ride like?

The horseback ride is roughly 1.5 hours long and takes place on our farm through hundreds of acres of rolling hills where our Cattle live. We take a maximum of 6 riders per tour to ensure a personalized experience. We do our best to find the cattle wherever they're hanging out that day to give you an up-close and personal experience seeing Cattle (some of which are Scottish Highlands) from horseback!

What if I'm a beginner rider or an expert rider?

Riders of all experience levels are welcome. From beginners to experts, we have horses suited for everyone (must be 9 years or older and in good physical condition).

What should I wear on the ride?

Long pants and closed-toed shoes are a must! A hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen are recommended on our hotter days.

Do you take drop ins?

Reservations are required, and rides must be booked in advance. You must have an appointment in order to visit the farm.

What is the weight limit?

For the safety and well-being of both our horses and our guests, we do have a weight limit of 250 pounds for our rides. This ensures that our horses are comfortable and healthy while carrying riders, and that each guest can enjoy their experience to the fullest!

Private Rides

Private rides are available Monday through Thursday for $250 per person, plus taxes and fees.

To book, email goldenhourfarminfo@gmail.com with your preferred date and the number of people in your group. We’ll send you a booking link to complete your reservation!

Availability for private rides depends on previously booked rides - if a public ride is already scheduled, a private ride cannot be booked at the same time.
