About Ridgeview Stables

Named for its setting at the base of the Shawangunk Ridge, Ridgeview Stables invites students to mount a horse and enjoy brisk rides through the leafy dens that it calls home. Riders as young as 3 participate in lessons under the care of owners Neal and Cynthia Mercier, who expose their students to not only English and Western riding but also the equally important aspects of proper horsemanship, care, and history. The well-rounded focus prepares riders young and old for a lifetime of sound riding and love for the sport, whether participating in horse shows or just sauntering along the Wallkill Valley Rail Trail, which runs directly through the facility.
