What Past Guests Are Saying About Our Equine Retreat
When guests come to Charis Hills for our equine retreats, they leave with more than just memories—they leave with a renewed sense of peace, connection, and purpose. Here's what some of our retreat participants and group leaders have shared about their experience:
Watching our campers connect with the horses at Charis Hills is really special. For many of them, it's their first time being so near such a powerful animal. Our equine exposure program gives each child the opportunity to try something they may have never thought possible. Horses are deeply emotional creatures, and forming a bond with them brings out a sense of calm, confidence, and joy in our campers that's hard to describe.
It's more than just riding - it's a therapeutic connection with nature, where kids experience peace, healing, and a sense of accomplishment that stays with them long after camp ends. I have very limited experience myself, and for me, it's humbling to try something new and ride.
