Do first-time riders get instructions on riding the horse?

Yes, first-time riders will receive instructions on riding the horse through a teaching trail ride, which includes a demonstration.

Can small children ride on the same horse with an adult?

No, small children cannot ride on the same horse with an adult. However, we do have a Velcro system that fits in our saddles to keep children stable on their horses. The designated parent or our guide will lead their horse for the comfort and safety of the children. This allows for a unique experience where children can get the feel of a real ride while being supervised. Note: Prices do not vary whether a child or adult is riding.

What happens if bad weather is forecast on the day of my ride?

If there is a 30% or more chance of rain, we will check the radar to monitor the location and time of the storm. Based on this information, we will plan your ride, adjusting the time or rescheduling as necessary.

Is wearing a helmet required for riding?

Wearing a helmet is not mandatory, but we do have some helmets available for those who want to feel safer. You can also bring your own helmet from a bike or similar gear. Just ask your trail guide to get one for you.

Can I book a ride for my group?

Yes, we offer group rides for families, reunions, or parties. We can accommodate up to 10 people per group, including small children.

Where is Touch of Chrome Trail Rides located?

Our meeting point is at the grassy parking lot located at 5900 Rocky Creek Park Road, Crowley, Texas, 76036.

Frequently Asked Questions



Do you need experience to go horseback riding on a trail ride?

No. Beginners are welcome, and first-time riders receive basic instruction with a demonstration before the ride starts. The pace stays gentle, and guides remain with the group on the trail, so you are not left to figure things out alone. You can also check out our blog for some beginner’s tips: The Top 10 Horseback Riding Tips for Beginners.



What should you wear for a horseback trail ride?

Wear comfortable, weather-appropriate clothes that are easy to move in, along with closed-toe shoes such as sneakers or lightweight boots. Many guests also like bringing sunscreen, insect repellent, and water for extra comfort. If you prefer to wear a helmet, bring your own. The goal is to stay practical, comfortable, and ready to enjoy the ride without overthinking the outfit.



Are horseback trail rides suitable for families and first-time riders?

Yes. These rides are designed for everyday guests, not expert equestrians, so families and first-time riders are a great fit. Riders must be 5 or older, and children ride their own horse rather than doubling with an adult. With a relaxed pace, gentle horses, and guide support throughout, families can enjoy a real outdoor adventure that still feels safe and manageable.
