A LOTTE HORSES

A Season of Horses, Creativity, and Meaningful Work

 

At A Lotte Horses, children spend their days riding, caring for animals, building, creating, and learning in relationship with horses, each other, and the natural world. Our summer camps balance skill-building with imagination, responsibility, and joy, offering a steady rhythm that supports confidence and growth.

​

 

What Makes Our Camps Different

• Ride every day, with groups matched by experience

• Waldorf-inspired crafts using natural materials and real tools

• Emphasis on animal care, responsibility, and stewardship

• Small groups with experienced instructors

• A calm, structured daily rhythm (not chaotic or overstimulating)
