Horseback Riding A great way to enjoy the rugged beauty of the Smoky Mountains is by horseback riding. Several stables and outfitters offer guided horse rides through areas of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the Nantahala National Forest, following trails that lead to waterfalls, through streams or along scenic ridges and panoramic vistas of mountains and lakes. Horseback treks are generally available from one to four hours. Or you can experience the adventure of overnight camping trips lasting two to four days. You should check with individual stables to learn what riding options each offers. If you like traveling with your
own horses, the Great Smokies and the Nantahala National Forest offer excellent
horseback riding trails. You can ride a different trail every day. There are
facilities where you can stable your horses, and ride your favorite trails. To
find out more about the trails in the area you can contact the Nantahala
National Forest at 828-479-6431 or the Great Smoky Mountains National Park at
865-436-1231.
