Itinerary

• Rock Springs Run State Reserve (Pass by)

  Rock Springs Run is an 8-mile river that forms the boundary between Wekiwa Springs State Park and Rock Springs Run State Reserve. Rock Springs Run eventually flows into the Wekiva River, which then runs 15 miles and empties into the St. Johns River. The Wekiva River Basin includes Wekiwa Springs Run, Rock Springs Run, the Wekiva River, Blackwater Creek and Seminole Creek. These waterways are the first congressionally designated National Wild and Scenic River basin in Florida. The Ethel Cemetery, located in Rock Springs Run State Reserve, is the oldest known cemetery in Lake County, built in 1880. The cemetery was located in the town of Ethel, which was a railroad stop town formerly known as Moody. Citizen support organization volunteers constructed a new entrance and fence for the cemetery, which contains four intact grave markers.

• **Max Weight:** This sliding scale is directly related to the physical requirements needed to maintain safe and appropriate balance while sitting in a saddle. While participants are riding, their center of gravity (and balance) is altered by being elevated in a seated position. We adhere to this requirement because: 1. Participants who fall outside this range are significantly more likely to fall off their horse and injure themselves. 2. Participants who fall outside this range and do not have advanced training and experience* in riding techniques, correct riding posture, and correct seated balance in the saddle, cause excess strain on a horse’s back. **Feet Inches --> Max Pounds:** 4' 0" --> 100 4' 1" --> 105 4' 2" --> 110 4' 3" --> 115 4' 4" --> 120 4' 5" --> 125 4' 6" --> 130 4' 7" --> 135 4' 8" --> 140 4' 9" --> 145 4' 10" --> 150 4' 11" --> 155 5' 0" --> 160 5' 1" --> 165 5' 2" --> 170 5' 3" --> 175 5' 4" --> 180 5' 5" --> 185 5' 6" --> 190 5' 7" --> 195 5' 8" --> 200 5' 9" --> 205 5' 10" --> 210 5' 11" --> 215 6' 0" --> 220 6' 1" --> 225 6' 2" --> 230 6' 3" --> 235 6' 4" --> 240 6' 5" --> 245 6' 6" --> 250 6' 7" --> 255 For participants who are over 6'7", please contact us to discuss riding options. *We do not make exceptions for participants who personally attest to having advanced training and experience. Due to the nature of our business, it is impossible to properly verify training and experience through personal attestation. We apologize for any inconvenience.
