For over 20 years Red Bud Riding Stables have been providing horseback riding to visitors of Eureka Springs.  Bring your cameras, dust off your cowboy boots, and mount your horses!  Enjoy the wildlife and beauty of the Ozarks from horseback with this family run operation.  As you are guided through the varied terrain of their private wildlife preserve, you will have the opportunity to encounter deer, turkey, coyotes, red-tailed hawks, and other animals.  Nature at its best!  

During the summer months reservations are not necessary, but recommended.  The horses are very well natured and their fees are $25.00 per person.  If you are riding double with children 2-4 years old, they are charged $12.50.
