Ride Info

Download our 2024 Info Letter

We are gearing up for our 35th season of organized trail rides. The schedule has been arranged. Our first ride of the year will be June 16th in Milton Mills, New Hampshire at Branch Hill Farm. After much discussion, we decided NOT to host our annual overnight ride in Sweden, Maine, but we will have a day ride on August 25th, but will allow people to come in on Saturday, August 24th, to camp and either do a Pot Luck for fend for yourself. More details as we get closer to August. As fall moves in, please join us on September 15th, Gorham, Maine which has also become a favorite ride. Triple C Farm in South Berwick has offered up her farm to host the October ride, there will be more talk on that this summer so stay tuned … and finally we will end the season with our favorite ride, the Turkey Trot to be held November 3rd also in South Berwick, Maine.

Those of you that have ridden with us in the past know that in addition to the beautiful and challenging trails, we also offer some great meals!! You are also familiar with the type of terrain that we cover, but for “newcomers” we offer these guidelines … Ordinarily our rides are approximately 12-18 miles in length. The first ride of the season tends to be shorter to facilitate “conditioning.” Our rides are “pleasure rides” and welcome all levels of riders, however, please realize that as the season progresses the terrain and the obstacles tend to become more challenging. The rule of thumb is check with the contact people should you have any questions.

We are affiliated with NEHTA (New England Horse and trail Association)
Current Negative Coggins must be provided.

Ride Prices:

Ride and Meal(Members): $25.00
Ride and Meal (Non-Members): $30.00
Meal Only: $10.00

NOTE: One of the ways we are able to offer such great meals after a ride is by pre-registrations “head count.” SO PLEASE remember SMART must receive your registration form(s) and money no later than Wednesday preceding the ride. (Post marked dates of mailings are not acceptable. NO EXCEPTIONS. You only need to send $10.00 for pre-registration, and then pay the balance the day of the ride. If for some reason you do not pre-register, you are still welcome to come and ride, however, you will be charged and extra $5.00.
