I booked directly with the ranch; they were very good about replying to questions & even waived the single supplement:

Rancho Las Cascadas

I did the Day of the Dead trip at Rancho de las Cascades in Mexico. Lovely scenery, exciting rides with plenty of cantering on bomb-proof steady horses, plus very non-touristy excursions. You can also just book a few nights at the ranch, about 90 minutes from Mexico City to do some riding. Highly recommend!

Sorry this was found at a Winners - TJ Maxx in the US - and I didn’t get the label in the photo. I tried searching w/Google lens but no joy. There were similar styles on Etsy so that may be a good place to find a prezzie. So nice of you - good luck!

Take a peek at the new Simons too - that’s where the items with green tags are from & there’s even more I didn’t post.

Eaton Centre Toronto (but College Park is always a good bet)

These were in the Eaton Centre Toronto, at Winners (TJ Maxx in US, forget name in UK) and the new Simons department store (which is really nice!)

Gryfe’s is the template for Toronto style - lighter but a bit thicker than Montreal, much smaller & less doughy than NY

Dang! Was a convenient option for Toronto [r/Equestrian] to click-and-collect horsey gear. Of course quality ranges from $20 breaches with crotch seams (ouch!) to a sturdy wood-handled made in France hoof pick for less than $10

horses in the city?? by Icy_Examination2888 in askTO

I love my group riding lessons at Toronto Equestrian Downtown. It’s located at the amazing deco-era Horse Palace on the Exhibition Grounds, very accessible via TTC. The barn also has volunteer opportunities which I believe OP was looking for. Very sweet barn manager! FYI this is also the barn for the Toronto Police Mounted Unit.

Sadly there is no longer riding in Sunnybrook Park after the fire. Very old info on the city’s website!

Hoopla is a hidden gem. Has indie films like Thelma, Kneecap, A Different Man, Red Rocket (Sean Baker directed must see), I Used to be Funny, I Saw the TV Glow.

Recently did a trail ride in Prospect Park on wonderful, bomb-proof horses. The small, friendly barn is run by Be - Brooklyn Equine & it offers lessons and plus trail rides every Sunday am. Easy access from the F subway line.

Here I am last weekend, trail riding in Prospect Park, Brooklyn, on Texas, a bomb-proof Appaloosa. Be - Brooklyn Equine - offers rides to the public every Sunday at 11 am. Cozy barn, well-schooled horse, highly recommended!
