RATES (per rider, tax included)
All rides start in the round pen
All rides are guided for the first hour at $100. Rates are lower after the first hour . (see Discount Rates below)
Riding time does not start until riders are comfortable with their horse and leave the round pen.
OUR RIDES ARE PERSONALIZED.
We match horse and rider to riding skills!
We can accommodate up to a group of 8 riders. Your ride is only with your group, not strangers. Our unique unguided riding is an option after riding the first hour with the wrangler and depends on your skill at controlling the horse. Regardless of skill, you always ride where you want......no nose to tail on a trail.
DISCOUNT RATES
Lower rates after the first hour
GUIDED & UNGUIDED, per person
1 hr…$100 2 hrs…$160 3 hrs…$200
UNGUIDED (for very experienced riders, must pass our test)

Frequent Riders Build Generous Rate Reductions
Ask about our Frequent Rider Program when you call us or after your ride. Annual cost to ride horses with us is far and away less money than owning your own horse. Riding on warm winter days is great!

OPEN ALL YEAR!
We require reservations over the phone due to a customized riding experience tailored for you and your party. To match horses with you, we will ask ages (not under 8 years old), weights (240 lb limit), guided or unguided rides (95% of our customers choose guided riding), how many different horses you have ridden (be it zero or hundreds), date and time of your ride and length of your ride. We accept personal check or cash at the time of riding, sorry no credit cards. We do our best to accommodate any changes that might occur in your situation such as rain outs, number of scheduled riders, dates and times, ride lengths, etc. Your enjoyment with us is our top priority!

Valeria Foddai
Born and raised in Italy but now proudly calling the Black Hills my home, horses have been a lifelong passion of mine. I look forward to sharing my experience and knowledge of these beautiful animals and outdoor time with you.
Cassidy Page
I’ve been riding for 11 years and have worked as a wrangler for 4 years. Horses and the outdoors have always been my passion (And dinosaurs too :D). The privilege of sharing The Black Hills with people from all walks of life on horseback makes my job even better. An encyclopedia on horses and science I hope to make everyone feel safe and comfortable here.
Courtney Banker
This is Courtney’s seventh year with Hollingsworth Horses and she is a relief wrangler. She has a family to attend and is a real estate agent. She loves horseback riding so much that she makes the time for it in her busy schedule. She is absolutely a take charge, get it done, fun gal and knows her stuff.
