Confirm experience level
Be upfront about your riding ability when booking so guides can assign an appropriate horse and position in the group.
Bring low-profile lighting
Carry a small headlamp stowed under your jacket for pre- and post-ride tasks—avoid bright lights during the ride to preserve night vision.
Dress in layers and waterproofs
Night temperatures drop and dew settles on trails; a wind layer and water-resistant outerwear keep you comfortable.
Quiet observation
Keep conversation and movement low to increase chances of nocturnal wildlife sightings and to maintain horse calmness.
Helmet (riding)
A properly fitted riding helmet increases safety during mounting, dismounting, and trail sections.
Headlamp (red-filtered preferred)
Red light preserves night vision and is useful before and after the ride; stow it under your jacket during the ride.
