Welcome to Schooner Valley Stables!
Are you looking for something fun and exciting to do in Brown County, Indiana? Hop on the back of one of our horses and take a memorable ride through the hills and valleys of Yellowwood State Forest. Whether you are a greenhorn or an experienced rider, we have a horse that will suit your needs. We offer walk, trot, and cantering rides which you won’t find at many stables. If you have never ridden on a horse at a canter, you’re in for one amazing experience.
Bring the whole family! We have no age limit. Children small enough to ride with a parent can do so, but we suggest anyone over six years old rides their own gentle horse.

Great experience with the staff! They are very knowledgeable about their herd and what your ability level is and pairing you with the correct horse. We are looking forward to coming back with our 5 year old!

I booked a ride for a work outing will two other employees, one of which had never even seen a horse in person. We were made very comfortable with how to handle the horses and we had a great ride!

Our family of 5 enjoyed an afternoon of riding horses at Schooner. Staff are very friendly and horses were well mannered. Definitely enjoyed our 1st horse back riding experience!
