Dunrovin Ranch is THE PLACE TO BE for kid’s from 3 to 17 years old. With special age appropriate programs, Dunrovin connects kids with horses, fishing, arts and crafts, and outdoor recreation of all kinds.


Pony Sessions

Pony sessions give youngsters a chance to ride our one of our three ponies. Cool Dude, a moderately sized Pony of America, is perfect for older children while Bonnie & Clyde, our two miniature Shetlands, are sized for even the youngest buckaroos. Pony sessions can be 30 minutes to an hour in length.

Spring and Fall Pony Club

There’s no separating kids and ponies! During the school year in both the spring and autumn, Dunrovin offers a six week pony club for kids who really want to learn about how to ride and care for a pony or a horse. The program stresses safety, responsibility, and independence. Each weekly session is for one hour. Kids are grouped by age: preschool 3 to 5 year olds; early grade school 6 to 9 year olds; and upper grade school 10 to 12 year olds. Our Shetland Ponies partner with the preschoolers; and our Pony of America or one of our gentle Tennessee Walking Horses are matched with the grade scholars.  All activities are conducted out of doors. Enrollment is limited. The last session includes an opportunity for club members to “show and tell” their accomplishments for friends and family.

Lewis and Clark Adventure Camp

Dunrovin Ranch was mistakenly thought to be the location of the famous Travelers Rest where Lewis and Clark camped in both 1805 and 1806 during their expedition to the Pacific Ocean (we have a plaque on a fence post that is a National Historical Marker). We are great fans of Lewis and Clark as we feel that they exemplified exploration at its best – travel to learn, respect the local cultures, share leadership, and take good care of each member of the team.

Our Lewis and Clark Adventure Camp gets kids from ages 8 to 14 involved all aspects of the Lewis and Clark expedition – horse packing, rafting, archery, target shooting, hiking the Lewis and Clark Trail, camp fires and cooking, and learning the traditions of the local Native Americans. All activities are conducted out of doors. Campers bring their own lunch, snacks, water bottles, and appropriate clothing for each day’s activities. Enrollment is limited.
