Our Facilities
Situated just 10 minutes drive north of Fredericton's city centre, Picket Hill Equestrian is an idyllic place for both horse and rider set on 28 acres.
Our stables consist of 17 large, bright stalls, tack lockers for our boarders, an indoor and outdoor wash stall, a washroom and a heated viewing room. The 60 x 120 indoor arena is attached to the stabling area and is well lit and airy.
The outside 120x200 sand arena has lighting for night time riding and is usable for the majority of the year due to its good drainage and a pleasant breeze that keeps bugs away.
We have a cross country course with schooling fences, entry to training level, show jumps and dressage letters in both our indoor and outdoor arena's, and there are no end of picturesque hacking trails to enjoy.
Horses can enjoy turnout in either our large pastures or smaller paddocks, several of which have run-in sheds. We provide a caring and knowledgeable environment for both horse and rider, ensuring a positive experience every day.
