Maury River Hunter Pace!

Yes, we are bringing the wonderful hunter pace Penny & Brian Ross started back to the Virginia Horse Center!

 

Beautiful fun marked course and delicious homemade lunch!

​

Riders go out starting 9 am - 12pm on 5 to 7-mile marked trail (Final distance TBD)
through rolling terrain -- a mix of open fields and woods with some small creek crossings, stunning views, ride along the Maury River and 15+ optional jumps all 12 inches to 2’9. Jumps will be XC/hunter type fences. ALL jumps are optional.

 

All Riding Disciplines welcome! 

​

The teams that are closest to the optimum time will win ribbons through the top six places.
Ribbons awarded to two riders (three can ride, but only two ribbons).
