Horse Camps

Horseback riding is only one of many activities

Horse camps offer your child the opportunity to get outdoors for the summer, go horseback riding and learn all about things such as horse tack. Typically, horseback riding camps will offer children lots of hands-on training with horses, teach them about the differences among breeds, riding styles and much more. Of course, there will be riding lessons and plenty of horseback riding - probably at least once a day guaranteed! There are many horseback riding camps in Ontario in Our Kids' listings. Our sister site, camps.ca, also lists many horse camps.

Advanced horse camps

Some horse camps may even offer your child the ability to learn some essential equestrian skills including lungeing, horseback safety and first aid. These more advanced horse camps may have children meet certain requirements in order to participate.

Most horse camps will also include regular outdoor activities like swimming, arts and crafts and other forms of entertainment.

Benefits of horse camps
After a week at horse camp, you can be sure that your child's appreciation of horses will deepen. She or he will beg you to go riding more often, and why wouldn't you? It's a great way for families to spend time together in the Canadian outdoors.

Most horse camps are day camps and they are typically coeducational. As it goes with other camps, horseback riding camps offer day and residential packages with day packages ranging from $250 to $500 or more per week and residential packages about double that.

There are numerous excellent horse camps (variously called equestrian camps or horseback riding camps) in Ontario, Quebec and British Columbia. Search our directory of Canadian horse camps right here at Our Kids Go to Camp.
