Overall, it was an awesome first horseback riding experience, and I would definitely recommend Andy's Trail Rides to anyone, especially if you've never ridden a horse before.
The stable's website says so too.
I am an experienced rider and my husband is very much a beginner - Lynn did a great job of matching us with horses that fit our skill set.

I recently went with my parents, all three of us different levels of beginners, and would 100% love to go back if I’m ever even passing through the area again.
This was our first time riding horses ever, and it was so memorable through the Black Hills!
The two of us had never been on horses before, and Casie put us at ease immediately and helped us acclimate to our new friends quickly.
She started with beginner riding lessons and has grown so much in confidence and skill.

The lesson program is good for beginners and more advanced riders, which will be helpful if you decide to show later on.
Beginner checklist
- Wear long pants and boots with a small heel. Flat sneakers can slip through a stirrup, and shorts let the saddle rub.
- Ask about helmets. Many stables lend riding helmets. Ask whether they have one that fits, or bring your own riding helmet.
- Tell them you are new. It gets you the right horse and the right pace.
