It's well known to trail riders that the combination of the park's natural beauty, the well-maintained horse stables and the facilities that exist both inside and outside the park make the Big South Fork one of the premier equestrian destinations in the Southeast. It was the natural beauty and quality of the park that made Larry choose Big South Fork to establish his business. Old-growth tree canopy provides tranquil shaded trails and there are many creeks to cross where horses can drink. Riders encounter breathtaking geologic and topographic features that they might not see otherwise and they enjoy photographing these memorable experiences. Trails often lead to overlooks where you tie your horses at the hitching rails provided by the park and look out into deep gorges with hawks soaring on the updrafts.
