Located in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of Southwest Virginia, Green Hill Park Equestrian Center is a 30 acre public horse park. The park is self supporting with donations from various contributors and several local horse clubs who donate partial profits from shows held at the park. We are fortunate to have three arenas, 20 stalls, and water provided at the facility. A valid Negative Coggins is required for participation.
Obstacle Trail (OT) – a relaxing short trail ride with judged obstacles along the trail and possibly in camp. All riding disciplines are welcome.
Arena footing and grassy hills, rocks in creek crossings.
Lunch and concessions will be provided by Blue Ridge Equine Society, a non-profit organization that donates all funds to worthy causes. For example, BRES has helped Roanoke Valley Horse Rescue purchase feed and supplies.
