Our family of four took advantage of gift certificates and took a ride with Hickory Hollow. We were all novices and two of us were a little tentative about our first ride. Pam and her crew were very accomodating and took care to choose appropriate horses for us. All their horses are gentle and well trained and the crew familiarized... More

We had a great time on this tour! Seeing the battle from horseback is a great experience. Our kids really enjoyed it and the staff was wonderful. They kept a close eye on the kids and their horses which made my time more enjoyable.

This tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Gettysburg. Guides are excellent, horses have amazing personalities. Don't miss this chance to see battlefields from different prospective.

I was in a group of 7 on the recommendation of 3 friends and we were thrilled with the ride. Pam, Tosha and little Lily were wonderful and professional. The horses were well cared for and easy to to ride. We'd go back again!

We had a great time on the trail ride with Pam, Tasha, and little Lily. Such fun people! This was a great way to get to see the battlefields and learn a little too. We heard about HHF via word of mouth and they did not disappoint. Horses were fun and well taken care of too. Would recommend to anyone... More

What a highlight!!! My wife and I have never rode a horse before. This was great. We were on a 11 night civil war tour. Two nights in Gettysburg. Our time with Pam and the girls was great. Thanks to everyone at Hickory Hollow.

Visiting the battlefields on horseback provides a very different and useful sense of the geography and topography of Gettysburg--and you won't get there other than by riding or hiking substantially (certainly not by car).
