Iron Horse Stables offers guided horseback trail rides out of Cantonment, Florida, north of Pensacola, from a 30-minute on-property ride to a four-hour trek through the Blackwater Forest with lunch. Riders can wind through the wetlands near the Escambia River at Beck's Lake, watching for deer and alligators, or head to the Gulf Islands National Seashore for a beach ride along the water. Established in 2013, the stable also teaches Western and English lessons and runs camps, pony parties, and boarding, all by appointment.
