Coastside Trail Rides at Ember Ridge Horseback riding in Moss Beach, CA

Since I was a young girl, riding a horse was a dream of mine, and today, I got to finally live it, and I wouldn’t have done it with any other company. From the moment we entered, the owners were so welcoming.

I can’t say enough good things about Ember Ridge! I surprised my partner by taking him here for a morning horseback ride (it was only his second time horseback riding). David and Brenda were enthusiastic and helpful on the phone when I called to book the ride and ask questions.

As a long time equestrian and horse lover, finding a barn that can offer a truly serene and enjoyable experience that is customized to your riding level - well let’s just say it can be very difficult. Finding a wrangler/owner that cares about their horses more than profit, even more rare.

I wanted to experience horseback riding on scenic trails but had no prior experience. I took my brother with me, and at first I felt nervous. However, the staff were very friendly, and the horses were well-trained—perfect for beginners.
