Cades Cove Riding Stables Update

The riding stables at Cades Cove have re-opened after closing for roughly a week due to liability insurance.

Under the new policy, all riders under the age of 16 must now wear an equestrian helmet, adult riders must wear a helmet or sign a release form, children under the age of 6 may no longer ride alone, and riding double is no longer allowed.

The average horseback ride is 1 hour long, depending on conditions. Cost is $20 per person for horseback rides, $7.50 per person for carriage rides, $6 per person for hayrides and $8 per person for guided hayrides.

The stables located in Cades Cove at 10018 Campground Dr. in Townsend, may be reached at 865-448-6286. Open 9 am - 5 pm daily. Closed November 7 - March 15th.
