Texas Horse Park
Opening March 28

Dallas, TX 75217
Directions

The Texas Horse Park builds upon the years of history and rich equestrian traditions of Texas. Deep in the heart of the Great Trinity Forest, the Texas Horse Park is located near Great Trinity Forest Way and Pemberton Hill Road. The result is an exciting new equestrian facility in an unexpected pastoral setting amidst hardwood trees, ponds and meadows.

When it opens, taking a step further, the Texas Horse Park will be a gateway to a world of nature and riding adventure. Visitors will enjoy modern day city-slicker events or the early days of
Texas ranching and farming along the Trinity River.
