Private concessionaires run the stables, for those who wish to take advantage of horseback riding in Acadia National Park. You can also camp across the driveway from the stables. Stalls fill quickly, and it’s best to call soon after the January 1st opening date to make your reservations. Wildwood Stables also offers one and two-hour carriage rides through the park for those without their own horse.
Hoof protection is recommended, as the loose gravel on the carriage roads can be tough on hooves.
