This place is wonderful! I wish I knew about it growing up and I am excited to know about it for our kids! Mr. Bannerman led a great (and I mean a great) devotion about people and God; parents and kids; and people and horses. He gave a demonstration about the training, discipline, and responsibility that goes into taking care of horses and tied it in beautifully with the theme of parenting.

learning about the farrier school...
... gave our children the opportunity to consider the possibility of working with people and horses for a career/ministry.
Canyonview is a college but they also offer classes and camps for kids! Check them out!
We were able to enjoy a sack lunch at the picnic tables on the grounds after the field trip was over.
Cost: Free (but maybe consider a donation...)
Tips:
There is a picnic area so you may like to bring something to eat afterward (if weather permits).
It's a ranch setting so boots are a good idea.
Restrooms:
Are available.
Best Time of Year:
Probably late spring or early fall. It really depends on Canyonview's schedule. We went in early October.
Ages:
All
