Does anybody know if the Hyatt Grand Cypress hotel still has the Equestrian Centre? I can't find anything about it - it is as if I dreamt it???

Where would anybody recommend Horseriding whilst in Orlando?
 
You didnt dream it. They definitely used to have an equestrian center, but I agree it looks as though it has been closed. We stayed in the villas last year, and I remember thinking to myself that I didnt see the horses. Cant find anything on the website either. Probably an activity that was done away with due to cost...

I cant think of any horseback riding places in Orlando, however I'm sure if you were willing to make the 90 minute drive north to my hometown of Ocala, you could find some with no problem. The sign as you enter the city is "The horse capital of the world." However, I've lived here almost my whole life and have never rode a horse, nor know of a specific place to do so...so hows that for not helping:)
 
You can ride at Disney, in Fort Wilderness. They have a nice trail ride that lasts about 45 min and winds its way through the campground.

We have also ridden at a place called Horse World in Kissimmee. They have beginner and intermediate trail rides that last an hour and possibly they have longer ones too, but we just did the hour long ride. We found about them as my 8yo horse loving DD was not allowed to ride at Disney b/c you had to be 9 even if you have riding experience. But at Horse World she was allowed - she was very happy! There you travel through some FL forest area.
