I had a fantastic outdoor ride with friendly guidance. I even got the chance to gallop for a bit, even though it was a walking group. The scenery is incredibly beautiful; we even came across a herd of deer. It was a truly wonderful experience.

Guise are front back and sides to help and for safety. Only wished they talked a bit less so that we could enjoy park and herd of deer we passed.
