Welcome to the Conservancy
Welcome to the Conservancy
Riding at Millican Reserve offers a chance to develop skill, confidence, and a deeper connection to the land. Guided lessons focus on horsemanship, balance, and technique, helping riders build strong relationships with their horses. The private trail system provides a scenic backdrop for exploration, reinforcing the bond between rider and landscape. Every ride reflects the Conservancy’s commitment to responsible land stewardship, ensuring that both the horses and the land are cared for with intention and respect.
Exploring the land on horseback is one of the best ways to experience the beauty of Millican Reserve. The private equestrian trails are open to Conservancy Members and TrailPass holders, ensuring that those who ride also help protect and maintain the landscape. Horse boarding and riding lessons provide additional opportunities to deepen your connection to horsemanship and the outdoors. Organized trail rides and equestrian events are scheduled throughout the year and can be found on the community calendar. However you ride, every experience supports a healthier partnership between people, horses, and the land.
