Horseback riding in Rhode Island is a ramble through many vistas and eras

Rhode Island > State > Outdoor Activities > Horseback Riding
Visitors to Rhode Island often focus on its charming cities like Providence and Newport, but, in fact, this small state covers large rural areas, including wooded parks, nature preserves, and meadows where farmers tilled the soil for hundreds of years. These plentiful rural areas – to the western border with Connecticut and the southern border with the Atlantic and in the East Bay region tucked against Massachusetts -- are crisscrossed with paths where horseback riding is allowed. Equestrians also may ride in many of the state-managed parks, from Lincoln Woods in the north to Burlingame in the southern part of the state.

Saddle up in Goddard Park, where C&L Stables offers affordable horseback riding for the whole family. With 18 miles of bridle trails overlooking East Greenwich Bay, the park is ideal for scenic rides through meadows and forested areas, and the stables also offer beach bayside rides. The stables have been operating in the park – where you can also play nine holes of golf on a public course, enjoy a picnic or relax by the beach – for almost two decades and pride themselves on easy-to-ride horses and experienced trail guides who will make even the most timid rider feel comfortable. Reservations at C&L Stables are required. The popular park also has an equestrian show area where riding events are held.
