Equestrian at Buffalo Mountain
Ride together. Stay together.
Bring your horses to the outdoor arena and plan the kind of ride your group came for. Then gather at the nearby Camp, with 50 beds, kitchens, and shared spaces where riders, families, and friends can spend the rest of the day together. All just 20 minutes outside Abilene.
Ride, gather, and stay
An equestrian destination with a place for the whole group.
The arena has hosted riding groups, barrel work, jumping setups, obstacle courses, and other horse-centered gatherings. The Camp sits nearby, so a day in the arena can become a full group stay without sending everyone back to separate hotels.
Every equestrian visit is planned directly with the ranch so arena use, trailer access, water, riding routes, and lodging can be coordinated around the group.

What to know before you haul in
A straightforward place to ride and spend time together.
These are the practical details available today. Specific arena setups and ranch access are confirmed as part of planning each visit.
Outdoor dirt arena
The large outdoor arena has a dirt surface and is not permanently lighted, so riding plans should be built around available daylight.
Trailer parking
A dirt lot is available for horse trailers. Electrical, water, and sewer hookups are not currently provided.
Water access
Water can be made available for horses through the ranch’s water trailer. Confirm the group’s needs when planning the visit.
Trail rides
Guests can plan self-guided riding on approved ranch routes. A guided ride may be possible by advance arrangement and availability.
Stay close to the arena
The nearby Camp gives groups access to overnight lodging, kitchens, dining, meeting, and recreation spaces during an equestrian stay.
Make it more than a day trip
Keep riders, families, and the rest of the group in one place.
