MD State Parks - Horseback Riding

Rooted deep in Maryland's history, horseback riding is a natural in Maryland's State Forests and Parks. Bring a group or come alone. The shady glens and peaceful trails will entice you to come back year after year.

The Maryland Park Service does not rent horses, and only provides the trails as a means of recreation.
