People who love animals have a special sense about what their needs are, and want to provide them with the very best that is offered. Along with plenty of food and exercise they need a clean dry place to live, and having horse mats in their stall can greatly assist in keeping things tidy. Not to mention the overall improvement to the horse stables appearance.

Cleaning out the horse stalls is probably the least enjoyable experience for an equestrian, but with the help of easy to clean mats the job takes much less time. With the extra time you have more time to enjoy riding and just being with your favorite equine friend. There are plenty of reasons to go horseback riding.

Once the horse stables are clean it is time to go riding, and every good equestrian knows that is the best time of all. Fresh air, sunshine and a nice breeze, there is nothing else that can equal the sensation of being so free. Over hill, over dale, and off to the neighbors house to meet with the rest of riders.

Trail rides are a great way to spend time with friends, and learn new ways of doing things. Loading up the horses to go try out a new horseback riding trail fills you with the excitement of adventure, while you are glad you got those new horse mats for inside the horse trailer. They certainly help give the horses better footing.

Arriving at the intended destination, everyone unloads their horses and saddles up for the weekend ahead. There are many different types of saddles and bridles and the jingle of metal, be it spurs or bits, helps add to the atmosphere of what fun lies ahead. The other riders have an assortment of horse breeds, and each of them in different sizes.

Someone shouts out the way to go and all the other riders rein their mounts to follow in that direction. A short distance down the path and the opening of a large cave looms on the left, as some of the horses become skittish and jump to the side. Riders grab leather in an effort to hold on, and everyone cheers and shouts as laughter fills the air.

After several hours of riding, and enjoying the fresh air, and smell of mother earth, a large clearing appears with picnic tables and a rock fireplace that is intended for cooking out. A hitching rail is provided for the horses and those who brought tethers have staked out an area for their horses to munch on the local grass.

This place was chosen for the saddle club meeting because just around the cliff side is a natural waterfall that fills a pond nearly half the size of a football field. After everyone has enjoy the cook out and roasting marshmallows, they mount up on the horses riding bareback and head for the water. The horses especially like to swim and the riders hang onto the thick manes.
