Six Hour Ride - The Wander About

Hocking Hills Horse Rides offers a distinctly robust way to connect with Ohio’s rugged landscapes through their Six Hour Ride – The Wander About. Set in South Bloomingville, this six-hour equestrian journey unfolds across a patchwork of striking natural features unique to the Hocking Hills area, including Crystal Falls, Red Rock, Box Canyon, Parish Rock, and the intriguing Airplane Rock formation. Each landmark displays the area's characteristic sandstone cliffs and rich biodiversity, providing both a scenic and physically engaging horse ride designed especially for intermediate and experienced riders.

This trail is more than just a ride; it’s a full sensory experience.

The ride's length and demands make it a standout for riders wanting more than a short excursion. Whether you’re in town for the natural beauty or the adrenaline of outdoor challenge, this ride offers a compelling way to engage one of Ohio’s most storied outdoor regions. It’s an opportunity to see these landscapes from a rare vantage point and leave with stories written in hoofbeats and canyon winds.
