Welcome!

The Etowah Riding Club is located in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina near Hendersonville, Brevard, and Asheville. We are a NonProfit {501(c)(4)} group who care about horses, enjoy riding, and have the desire to become better horse people.

ERC meets monthly throughout the year to socialize and learn. During warm weather, we sponsor several shows and events. Members and friends ride together informally throughout the year.

The Etowah Riding Club was founded in 1966, close to 60 years ago, and is still going strong thanks to community support, generous property owners, and active members.  We are striving to be a resource for local equestrians that helps support the many equine trails & activities we have in our area.

Our Mission

At Etowah Riding Club, our mission is to foster a lasting bond between horses, riders, and our community. We strive to create an inclusive space where individuals and families can explore the joys of equestrian activities, discover a new hobby, and deepen their understanding of horse care and riding. Through education, fun events, and shared experiences, we aim to inspire connections, nurture personal growth, and celebrate the beauty of equine sports in a welcoming family-friendly environment.
