Louisville Equestrian Center

Nestled on 28 acres in Louisville's East End, the Louisville Equestrian Center is the realization of a childhood dream for owner, operator, and adept horsewoman Betsy Webb. The modern facility––equipped with 78 stalls, four indoor and outdoor rings, and ample storage and lounging areas––is home to a team of dedicated staff members and instructors. With 30 horses at their disposal for classes, trainers lead private and group lessons for all ages and experience levels, illuminating horse-handling and riding fundamentals. Camps and clinics engage equestrian youngsters aged 4 and older, and pony parties entertain kids with experiences more rewarding and memorable than trying to ride a pile of My Little Pony action figures.
