SeviervilleHorseback riding service

Visitors consistently rave about the dual experience here—trail rides through the Smoky Mountains and the hands-on petting farm. The guides, particularly Savannah and Candice, earn glowing praise for their patient instruction and hospitality, making first-time riders feel completely at ease. The well-behaved horses and affordable pricing add to the appeal. One notable concern involves the petting zoo's concrete areas, which one visitor felt weren't cleaned frequently enough.
