This is a beautiful two-hour ride at Rocky Creek Park on the east side of Benbrook Lake, south of Fort Worth. The lake views are adorned by the sunset, which is unique every time. The ride will be on the opposite side of the lake for approximately an hour before sunset to reach the perfect spot for spectacular views. The colors of the sky and clouds reflect down on the lake’s waters so be sure to bring your cameras and/or phones for this ride.
- This ride will last for two hours (6:30 PM to 8:30 PM). Please note* that this time may shift due to the sun setting later in May. If the start time is moved, you will get a text stating that the meet time will be 7:00 PM with a start time of 7:30 PM. However, if that happens, I will also update this event
- You must arrive 30 minutes prior to the ride start time to allow for check in
- If you arrive late, and the group is ready to go at 6:30 PM, we will depart without you and no refunds will be issued
- You MUST purchase your ticket online PRIOR to the event
- They only allow 10 riders per event so please be sure to purchase early to to secure your spot
It's ok if you have never gone horseback riding before as they will give instructions followed by a demonstration. You can also read some instructions prior to the event: https://touchofchromepaints.com/first-time-riders/
Now for some important details:
- The weather is always subject to change, so please be sure to dress in layers
- If the forecast changes and there is a 30% or more chance of rain, they will change the start time or reschedule the ride
- You must wear jeans and boots. If you do not have boots, hard sole, lace up sneakers are ok. Absolutely no slip on tennis shoes, flip flops, etc.
- Hats must have a string on them to keep them from blowing off in the wind (i.e. no baseball caps)
- No rider can exceed 230 pounds. Each person will be weighed upon check in. If you are over 230 pounds, you will not be permitted to ride and no refund will be given
- Helmets are not required but are available for use, if you would like one
- Every rider must sign a waiver. You can download and print it to bring with you or sign one upon arrival. A link will be sent with your confirmation e-mail
- Be prepared to secure your possessions you bring on the ride as they are not responsible for lost or damaged items
- There is not a restroom located at the meeting location. Due to this, I recommend stopping somewhere when you get off the freeway
