Long Valley Farm
Horseback riding is not permitted at Long Valley Farm access.
Sandhills Access
All seven trails at Sandhills access are open to biking and horseback riding. There is horse trailer parking available at the access.
Please note that hikers must yield to horseback riders, and bicyclists must yield to both hikers and horseback riders by stopping and moving to the side of the trail. These trails are "pack in, pack out" – please bring enough water for your adventure and take your trash back to the parking lot with you.
The parking lot and some sections of trail have crush and run rock where trail tends to be wet. Boots and shoes are suggested for horses in these areas. Please do not take your horse off-trail, as this can damage fragile longleaf pine ecosystems and wildlife.
Be Advised:
Bike and bridle trails are closed at times for construction, poor trail conditions due to weather, or other reasons, for both visitor safety and protection of the trail and natural resources. Trails are expensive to construct, maintain and repair. Disregarding trail closures results in:
- Delaying or prolonging construction or repair;
- Damaging the trails, incurring significant costs and further closure time for additional repair; and
- Endangering yourself, state park staff and EMS staff who would work to get you out of harm's way if you are lost or hurt.
Thank you for respecting our park's natural resources, facilities and fellow park visitors.
