Kids Ask Skipper - Riding a Horse in Door County
By Skipper the Door County Otter
Jun 22, 2011 - 8:46:03 AM
Dear Skipper: Are there any places to ride a pony or a horse in Door County? My whole family rides, and we enjoy nature trails and stuff. Please write back. Your column is awesome. Thanks, Molly Age 12, Fond du Lac
Dear Molly, Great question—I love horses, too! In fact, Door County has a wonderful riding stable right in Egg Harbor called “Kurtz Corral”. The corral has almost 60 horses and they are open 7 days a week, June through October. Please visit their website for more information at www.kurtzcorral.com. I thought you might like this cute poem about horses: He knows when you're happy He knows when you're comfortable He knows when you're confident And he always knows when you have carrots. ~Author Unknown Thanks for writing to me, Molly and have a great horse ride! Your friend, Skipper
