Re: [RC] Moving to Kentucky - Karen L.Hi Karen,
I live in Louisville, KY and board my horse at a friend's house in Southern Indiana, at a location about 20 miles from here. I don't know much about boarding facilities in Kentucky. You may consider boarding near the Harrison-Crawford State Forest, which is outside of Corydon, Indiana and across the Ohio river from Fort Knox. It would be a little bit of a drive, but then you would have a lot of area to ride in. The Harrison-Crawford State Forest, which has about 26,000 acres and 80 miles of marked horse trails. (http://www.in.gov/dnr/forestry/index.html?http://www.in.gov/dnr/forestry/stateforests/&2). I know there is overnight horse camping there and I am sure that daycamping as well is provided.
Will you have a trailer so you can trailer to riding locations? If so, then I recommend the Clark State Forest in Henryville, Indiana (Exit 19 off I-65 in Southern Indiana). The Clark State Forest has 24,000 acres to ride in and 100 miles of marked horse trails. There are dayriding and overnight horse camping areas as well. (http://www.in.gov/dnr/forestry/index.html?http://www.in.gov/dnr/forestry/stateforests/&2)
The local endurance club is the Daniel Boone Distance Riders (http://aha14.com/clubs/dbdr.php), which has members from all over Kentucky and Southern Indiana. I encourage you to join. This is a nice group of people. The club puts on several rides a year in Kentucky and Southern Indiana, plus some club members also put on some rides in Southern Indiana at the Clark State Forest.
Welcome to Kentucky!
