Athol, ID

 

 

 

  

 

Farragut State Park provides an awesome array of trails ranging from easy to moderate terrain. With over 41 miles of trails in the park there is something for everyone.

The park is situated along the PendOreille Lake and provides some very scenic opportunities. The trail challenge only covers approximately 6 to 8 miles but will emcompass some interesting fun obstacles.

We invite everyone from the juniors, beginners and accomplished riders to come out, saddle up and take the challenge.... and we'll ask the question "So you think you can ride?"....

Saturday September 26th is the date. Breakfast is offered at 8 am with the first rider out at 10 am. An easy fun casual ride is the main menu for the day.

 Come Ride with us at Farragut State Park! Only 20 miles from Coeur d`Alene ID, the park offers over 41 miles of great trails shared with horses, bikers and hikers. Our ride will use only approx. 8 miles of the best part of the park. We meander through forested trails to open meadows. The trails are perfect for all levels of riders and horses. The park is situated next to the Pend O`reille Lake which is the deepest lake in Idaho. Boating, swimming and many other activities are available to park users. Limited amount of stalls are available for use and limited campsites for horses. An arena is available for your use also.

This is a “Casual Competition”, not a race or timed event. The trail can be completed liesurely with plenty of time to smell the roses and visit with friends.

And remember up to 50% of ACTHA proceeds go to Horse Charities in your state. Heaven knows they need the help!
