Public park horse trails welcome places to ride

I would like to thank those responsible for including horse trails at Northeast Park, which recently opened. There are more horses in Guilford County than in any county in North Carolina, but there are precious few public parks here that allow horseback riding.

Trails are being cleared for housing developments everywhere we turn and many people no longer have safe places to ride near their homes or farms. Trail riding is my favorite stress reliever on the weekends and it is wonderful to have a new, beautiful, safe place to ride in Guilford County.

The trails are well marked, the trailer parking lot and arena are top notch, and the staff is helpful and courteous. Kudos to everyone involved in making this happen.

Interesting that Guilford County would have the highest number of horses. Especially considering some of the more rural areas in Eastern NC.

The park sounds cool.
