Horseback riding in Colorado reference list

ATTENTION Girl Scouts of Colorado!  We’ve been compiling list of riding facilities and instructors throughout Colorado as a reference for Girl Scouts. Below is what we have so far. If you know of a place or instructor that would be good to have on list, please add them to this blog! Some will offer discounts to Girl Scouts or large groups, but anyone wanting to register with any listed groups will need to ask or confirm with that location since this offer sometimes changes. To keep the list from being too long, there are two websites included that are a general data base for CHA certified instructors and for trailriding facilities. We will continue to add to this as we get more information. HAPPY RIDING!

Riding facilities and liveries:

Some may offer scout discounts, some offer group discounts. . .groups registering will need to ask to clarify when they register or contact these facilities. Also, some are seasonal and not open in winter.
