Dear valued customers and partners,

After six successful seasons of operating the equestrian facility at Strawtown Koteewi Park, K-Trails Equestrian Adventures will no longer be continuing its operations at the park. We have made this decision so that we can focus on offering curated riding holidays at western ranches and global destinations including Patagonia, Iceland, New Zealand, India, Mongolia, Italy, Kenya and South Africa.

We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Hamilton County Parks and Recreation for partnering with us over the past seven years to provide horseback riding experiences, pony rides, corporate events, birthday parties and more to the public. It has been an honor to work with such a dedicated and supportive team.

Our main goal in opening this business was to introduce people to horses in an educational and enjoyable manner, and to provide employment opportunities to young people and horse enthusiasts. We are proud to have hired hardworking and talented youth from 4H, FFA, Scouts, and other organizations, as well as people on the autism spectrum and others dealing with mental health challenges. For us, the horse and the beautiful natural environment of the park provide a unique space for personal growth.

We want to thank the entire Hamilton County Parks Department, especially former Director Al Patterson, Current director Chris Stice, Assistant Director Bruce Oldham, and Strawtown Koteewi Park Manager Chandler Bryant, for their unwavering support throughout the years. We would also like to extend our gratitude to the Hamilton County Commissioners for their unparalleled support for the adventure partners at the park. Strawtown Koteewi Park is an amazing adventure destination and we are thankful for the opportunity to help in its success.

Hamilton County Parks and Recreation will now be seeking a new operator for the equestrian facility at Strawtown Koteewi Park. If you are interested in submitting a proposal, please visit their website for more information: https://www.hamiltoncounty.in.gov/296/Parks-and-Recreation

It has been a true adventure and labor of love for the entire Stewart family, and we wish nothing but success to the next operator of the barn. Thank you for your support and understanding as we transition to the next chapter of our journey.

Sincerely,

John Stewart
Owner and General Manager

RIDING HOLIDAYS

Interested in joining us for an exciting equestrian holiday? K-Trails Equestrian Adventures is expanding our offerings and has curated a number of incredible global riding experiences for our customers!

If you are a skilled rider or someone that needs to learn how to canter before going... there is a trip just for you. These adventures are not large group tours but instead offer small intimate riding holidays for 6-8 people max. We can also arrange for the trip to be a private experience for just your family if that’s what you are looking for in a riding holiday.

K-Trails owner John Stewart has traveled to over 50 countries and is savvy when it comes to planning premiere riding vacations. He always seems to know where to find the best local food, great shopping and will assist you in planning additional tour options to maximize your journey abroad. Each of these trips are focused on cultural experiences where John actually knows the local host or guide. As a horseman, John loves to experience other horse cultures and wants to share these adventures with friends.

It’s a big world... saddle up and go see it.

For more information on any of these global adventures, please email john@ktrails.com.
