About The Venue

Coyote Crossing Equestrian Center is located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains and has over 100 acres of beautiful rolling pastures to ride in. We also have a Mountain Trail Course that hosts over 25 obstacles such as the trestle bridge, the swinging bridge, the balance beams, the teeter totter, the cake box, and more! You will also find two arenas, the larger one being an acre in size, as well as stalls for your horses and electric hookups for your trailer. Our facility can be found out in the countryside of Bedford, Virginia, and offers a wonderful and quiet getaway from everyday life.
