Children’s Horseback Riding Camps

Whether it’s your child’s first time in the saddle or you have an equine-obsessed kid, DEC horse camps teach a lot more than riding skills.


Our camp program provides a safe environment for children to develop social decision-making skills and experience the thrill of horsemanship. Camps start at $995 (Early registration $895) for 5 days and a Friday afternoon show.

How Do You Explain Magic?

It’s near-impossible to explain the magic of the horse camp experience. And this comes from youth development professionals who spend every waking moment thinking about how to help children explore learning!

Nonetheless, we can’t keep the good news to ourselves. With our passionate riding instructor and camp counselors, the programs are kicking into gear for 2023.

Kid’s Horse Camps

In addition to daily rides, young equestrians worked the stables, feeding, grooming, saddling their horses, and so much more.

Stable chores aren’t just for kicks. A sense of personal responsibility comes from caring for a horse, and chores provide real-world opportunities for campers to learn discipline and work ethic. 

Destiny offers a half-day equine-focused camp for children ages 7- 12.
