If you are seeking a relaxed trail riding or training experience with your horse in a secluded yet secured area, you will enjoy Big Hat Horse Camp. The camp is designed for horsemen and horsewomen.

The camp consists of 130 acres private Corriente cattle ranch surrounded on all sides by working farms. Big Hat Camp is available to private groups by reservation only. Your group will be the only occupant. Relax and ride at your leisure through oak forests, sheltered meadows and sunny pastures. At night, reminisce in the warm glow of kerosene lamps or around a crackling camp fire.
