Equestrian Trails and Volunteer Groups in Florida Here you will find links to various places you can ride your horse throughout the State of Florida, as well as some Volunteer Groups, Citizen Support Groups and Trail Riding Clubs that help maintain these trails we ride upon! Thank and join them in support of our trails!
***American Endurance Riding Conference, Southeastern Endurance Riders Assn and South Eastern Distance Riders Assn use these trails for distance riding competition! Click on the name of each county for a map of that county's location, on the name of the official website(s) for the most up-to-date information, and on any "also see" or "go to" county name to be directed to that county. Please refer to the official websites for specific requirements (i.e., proof of a negative Coggins test). The State Forests in Florida have a program called the Trail Trotter Program. This is an opportunity to log your rides in our State Forests to earn patches and certificates. PLEASE NOTE: The Division of Forestry has stewardship over the State Forest system for Florida.
