The Gettysburg Equestrian Historical Society was founded in 1994 as a non-profit volunteer organization with the sole purpose of assisting the National Park Service in preserving and maintaining the equestrian trail system at Gettysburg National Military Park.
The horse trails at Gettysburg are a splendid and unique way to experience the history and landscapes of the most dramatic land battle in American history. The trails offer riders the opportunity to ride the same battlefield where over 165,000 soldiers (and 72,000 horses and mules) struggled for three long, bloody days to determine whether we would be one nation or two – to ride across the landscape where “A New Birth of Freedom” was made possible.
