If you are looking for an outdoor winter activity that does not take a lot of exertion than a sleigh ride may be just the ticket for you. Horse-drawn sleigh rides are a wonderful way to get out into nature in the winter time. Whether it is over snow-covered roads, over fields, or through the woods, riding along in a sleigh covered by a blanket through winter scenery can be a great time for couples or the whole family.
Northern New England, where they more reliably get long stretches of snow cover, is probably the best for a sleigh ride, but you can find sleigh rides throughout all of New England. In southern New England if Mother Nature does not cooperate and provide a blanket of snow, it is pretty easy for sleigh rides to be replaced by wheeled hay rides…
Following you will find a listing of places throughout New England to go on a sleigh ride:
