Horseback Eco Safari Adventure
Experience a pristine 4700 acre Florida wildlife preserve and working eco-ranch on horseback with the Horseback Eco Safari Adventure. Located less than 30 miles from downtown Orlando, Horseback Eco Safari Adventure offers one hour trail rides led by seasoned guides. You will ride on historic trails dating back 500 years and first trod by Native Americans. Your guide will point out the diverse wildlife you pass, which might include deer, alligators, black bears, the rarely sighted Florida panther and almost 200 bird species. This unique conservation area is home to 9 diverse ecosystems — cypress groves, pine flatwoods, wetlands, streams and more. The knowledgeable staff will match a horse to your riding ability and personality, so if you are a tenderfoot, be assured you will be matched according to your skill level. As an added bonus, after an hour in the saddle, hop aboard a swamp buggy and see the wetlands, swamps and marshes located on the site.
