Smoky Mountain Trail Rides 1959 Walnut Creek Road, Marshall, NC 28753

"Gary and the two ladies that were our guides were all really awesome to be around. Genuine, helpful, and knowledgeable about the land & the horses. We didn’t feel like this was your typical trail riding excursion. The views were spectacular from their mountains on the land, and the terrain we rode was adventurous! The horses were seemingly treated well too, which made me happy. Definitely do the 2 hour tour, it shows so much more of the 750 acres they have and you won’t be sorry."

"Decided to get my wife this as part of a getaway trip for our 10 year anniversary, and as expected she had an amazing time. What wasnt expected is that I would as well! Our guide Richard was friendly and extremely knowledgeable about Horses and pretty much every aspect of Ranching. He explained the trust required between a horse and a rider and also showed us some cool tips about riding along the way. Would recommend if you go to ask for Richard he was amazing... My wife and I will be back!"

"Been riding here for the last 3 years with people of all experience levels. It’s always great! Don’t be afraid of the longer ride. They usually stop about halfway and you can stretch your legs and enjoy the views and get to talk to some really cool people. I took my 3 daughters today and they loved it of course. Our youngest is ten and the horses and experienced guides made it perfect for her. This is a GREAT family outing. Check’em out, you won’t be disappointed!"

"By far one of the best trail rides I’ve been on so far. This trail was a little more challenging which made it fun. I wouldn’t let that intimidate you though as an inexperienced rider. The horses are well mannered and trail guide was very friendly and helpful at guiding beginner riders through it. The view was breathtaking too! I loved it so much, I had to come back a second time in one weekend. Highly recommend the 2 hour trail. 1 hour and it’s over too soon."

"Amazing experience, highly recommend this place! The horses have a wonderful temperament. Easy and pleasant to ride for any level of experience. Richard and Gray were awesome! Super knowledgeable and made you feel so comfortable. We particularly loved Richard’s approach to teaching us about the horses-you can tell they love and respect these beautiful animals. The trail is gorgeous-really can’t say enough good things about Smokey Mountain Trail Rides. We will definitely be back! Thanks!!"
