Petit Galop Equestrian Camp New York - Horse Riding Camp New York -

Our horsemanship programs and riding camp for children are offered YEAR-ROUND! Our SUMMER Equestrian Riding Camp and WEEKEND Horsemanship Program are designed for horse enthusiasts who are ready to experience both the joy and the responsibility of having their own horse.
We also offer a WINTER Recess Riding Camp & AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAM.

Each camper is assigned a horse or pony of their own to ride, care for and love. Riding programs are taught by caring professionals and are individually tailored to each rider’s specific area of interest. Whatever your riding goals may be- to compete in horse shows or to simply enjoy a leisurely trail ride through the countryside - our equestrian camp programs will help you acheive them.

Through thoughtful, in-depth instruction in riding, hands-on horse care and stable management children gain true horsemanship skills and are able to experience a more rewarding and meaningful relationship with horses.

Our goal is to instill a sense of accomplishment and responsibility while having fun in a safe, nurturing environment. Each student is sure to make great new friends, build confidence, measurably improve her riding skills and gain a deeper respect, understanding and appreciation for horses and nature. (Learn more)

"Our daughter Gillian is 10 and had never been to sleep away camp. We appreciated the high level of cleanliness, the level of supervision (both on and off the horses), the quality of the horses and top condition of the tack, and the good food and meals -- served family style. Even the non-equine events were good experiences. We plan to return to Petit Galop this summer. It is a great program for children that love horses and the outdoors!"

"Our twins love it so much they would like to move there. They forgo traditional birthday parties to have a weekend there in the spring. This riding camp is very special and lovely and the kids simply love it. It is small and it is focused on horses so if you are looking for a traditional camp with lots of campers and other activities, this may not be for your daughter. If your daughter loves being around horses, playing with them, feeding them, taking care of them and riding them she will love it. "

"We had a perfect experience at Petit Galop.
Delia, who was only eight last summer and had never been to sleepaway camp, was scheduled for two weeks and stayed for four. She was ecstatic about her experience - learned about taking care of horses and their different personalities, made great progress in her riding, loved the family feeling of the camp. She took pride in her responsibilities, and genuinely knows a huge amount about horses and their behavior. She is begging to go for the whole summer this year.
We feel absolutely blessed to have found the camp.
All best, Nan "
