inviting water obstacle and several small, beginner ditches.
Schooling at Frying Pan
Come enjoy a ride in the
park!
Test your skill on our Cross Country Course, school in one of our two outdoor rings or venture into the Indoor Arena if the weather is bad. All riders and instructors must purchase and display an annual or daily riding pass. Passes can be purchased in the visitor center or the Equestrian Office located in the Indoor Arena. To save time, call ahead with your payment information and we can have it ready for you to pick up. Annual passes may also be purchased at pro-rated amounts at any time during the year.
Riding facilities are open for public use between the hours of 8:00 AM – 8:00 PM with the exception of regularly scheduled maintenance, private rentals, horse shows, or conditions related to weather. Cross Country course closes at dark. Availability for public use of the equestrian facilities can be confirmed at 703-437-8261 or 703-437-9101 or by referencing the Equestrian Calendar.
Trailer parking is available in the designated trailer parking lot, near Barn 1 or Barn 2, and behind the Indoor Arena. Proof of negative Coggins test within 1 year is required for all horses on park grounds. Out-of-State horses will need to have the appropriate health certificate issued by a licensed veterinarian.
Instructors: looking for a new place to school? Tired of canceling lessons because of the weather? Purchase an annual instructor pass and put your worries aside. This pass covers any business conducted on-site. Students must have a daily or annual riding pass to participate in lessons.
