Celebrating a bachelorette on the Fabulous Rain Forest Ride? Check! Each horse was paired to the skills of each rider, ranging from never-ridden-a-horse to several-horse-riding-experiences. Horses in this group included Merlin, led by Andrea, our guide, Summer, Charlie, Bonnie, and Blue. Guide Andrea not only led us through the trails, she also shared entertaining jokes, horse facts, trail stories over her extensive experience with horses and her career, and highlighted the personality of our equine companions. Spending time with these beautiful giants, getting a glimpse of their character and relationships with one another, added to the experience, on top of a different perspective to enjoy nature from and some excellent fall weather to our advantage. The adventure on the Cobble Hill trails is an exceptional experience, and we stepped away with laughs, stories, and maybe some ab work! Thank you, Andrea, Alpine Stables, and our new horse pals.

We had a great time with Sarah! She was very knowledgeable and made us feel comfortable as first time riders. The horses were lovely (shout out to Blue and Summer) and the trail was the perfect length for an afternoon ride.

Riding horses has been on my list of dreams I wanted to do and yesterday my fiance made it come true through alpine stables. we both have never ridden before so had no idea what to expect but we were blown away by the dedication of our guide she was so funny and welcoming made us both feel like we've been riding for years. I have to say this team goes out of their way to make guests welcome. theirs grounds are so clean and well kept all the horses looked so happy and well cared for was incredible to see such an great team of people thank you so much for giving us an experience we will never forget.

Had a wonderful time on the Fabulous Rain Ride with my partner. Neither of us had much experience riding horses but our guide was friendly and helpful through the whole process. Would make the trip to the island just for this. Definitely recommend.

Went riding here on the weekend and it was a lot of fun.

The prices are a bit expensive compared to other trail riding organizations I’ve been to in the past, but horses are well looked after and the trail guide was friendly throughout the experience.

If you don’t have your own helmet, they supply them!

They take into consideration of rider skill levels too.

Overall I’d say it’s a good organization and fun for everyone.

I wanted to do something different with my visiting friend and we had the best experience at Alpine Stables. We went on a two hour forest trail ride with Andrea, our fearless and funny guide. She has extensive knowledge of the horses, who are lovely and well trained, and the terrain where we were riding. There was a first time rider with us who appeared to do very well. I am looking forward to more trail ride adventures!

Visited here in October. The guide was super fun and friendly. Horses were all well taken care of and calm. The trails were beautiful. Highly recommend!

Andrea led us on a magical mountain tour with our two horses, Bonnie and Blu! The horses were well trained and the trail was exciting but safe. Hope to return again! Remember to tip your tour guide!!
