Closer to Burtonsville than it is Silver Spring, back off the road you'll find the Woodland Horse Center. A horse lovers' haven, where they'll teach even the most skittish of children to ride and care for horses. With an indoor ring as well as paddocks for riding, there's plenty of room to exercise and enjoy a ride. Special events for kids draw a little crowd, where at Halloween, the kids AND the horses get all dressed up for the party!

Woodland teaches English balance seat riding. Rates are reasonable and the location is convenient to Howard, PG, and Montgomery counties.
There are separate lessons for children and adults. The children' s program is divided by age - 5 to 7 year olds are in Pony Pals while those 8 to 15 are in children lessons. Pony Pal lessons are taught in a safe, fun environment with parents as part of the class; they walk beside the horse and help their child.
Woodland offers a free introductory lesson every Sunday (except when Sundays fall on major holidays, i.e., Easter, Christmas, New Year's) at 1:00 p.m. The lesson lasts about an hour and a half.
