Saddle Barns
See the natural beauty of our state parks from a different perspective… from the back of a horse!
Indiana State Park Saddle Barns offer trail rides, pony rides and hay rides.
Many offer lessons, scout badges, gift certificates, birthday parties, corporate outings, campfire programs and other services.
Saddle barns are open daily from Memorial Day Weekend through mid-August; then at least on weekends through October. Hours may be extended as weather permits, so call the location you’d like to visit for specific services and hours of operation.
All saddle barns are operated by independent contractors.
