Hilton Head Horse Riding

Horse riding is a hobby enjoyed by all ages and although many start horse riding when young, more people are taking up horse riding for the first time later in life. This section is intended to help both those thinking of starting horse riding as well as the more experienced horse rider.

Lawton Stables

Lawton Stables offers enjoyable guided trail rides for children and adults starting at eight years of age. The riding runs through the Sea Pines Forest Preserve, a 600 acre preserve where many plants and animals can be observed. Also available are pony rides for kids under seven, hayrides (also through the Forest Preserve) and professional training and riding lessons

Our Experience at Lawton Stables...
We had a good time riding the horses at Lawton Stables. I rode a horse named Fire, while my wife - Melissa- rode Benny. Fire seemed to have a slight attitude with me in the beginning but he still cooperated for a nice ride. The guide led us past plenty of wildlife throughout Sea Pines. We passed by Lake Thomas and Lake Joe, saw many birds and even two alligators (one extremely large!). They offered us skin-so-soft which did an excellent job repelling the mosquitoes. $50 per person - worth the money - especially if you have never ridden before.

Sea Horse Farms

Sea Horse Farms also offers trail rides, including beach segments for those eight years old or more (250 Lb. maximum). They also offer pony rides geared to kids birthday parties, with the ponies rented by the hour. Off of Beach City Road 843-681-7746
