The carriage roads of Rockefeller State Park Preserve were designed for horses and preserving that tradition is the inspiration for our annual ride. Riders can visit on the day of their choice and go at their own pace, enjoying the sights and sounds of the Preserve. Carriage drivers are welcome! Please note, lunch will not be provided this year. All registered participants will be entered in the fantastic raffle!
All proceeds from this event go towards carriage road maintenance.
Congratulations to our raffle winners!
