16 minutes

How often do you get out on the trail with your horse? There are no right or wrong answers to this question. However, I find it interesting how most riders fall into 2 categories when it comes to trail riding or hacking with their horse. They see it purely as a way to relax or unwind with their horse. And then you have a smaller 2nd group who understand that it's a great way to work with and train their horse.

You can use trail riding to relax 'or' train your horse. The key is to become intentional about which option you choose on any given day when out of the arena.

Today, I want to encourage you to begin getting more intentional about your time on the trails with your horse. And to encourage you to see this as an amazing opportunity to build the connection with your horse; regardless of your focus on any specific day...

So, let's first look at the benefits you can experience when you include more trail riding into your current training schedule or riding routine.
