Discover North Texas Horse Country.

North Texas is Horse Country. In fact, North Texas boasts one of the highest concentrations of horse farms in the country, and that’s saying something.

All breeds and disciplines of horses are born and raised here. There are Arabians, Quarter Horses, Appaloosas and Thoroughbreds. Many world champion horses have come from North Texas, and many more will in the future. In short, if you like horses, you’ll like North Texas.

Visitors are welcome to drive down country lanes and bask in the beauty of the horse farms at any time of the year. Folks interested in touring some of the farms would do well to arrange a North Texas horse farms tour through the Denton Visitors Bureau.

After touring the countryside in your car, try a horse-drawn carriage ride. It’s a fun way to tour a town and feel part of the pervasive horse culture. Brazos Carriage offers carriage rides in Fort Worth, Dallas, and throughout North Texas.

Spend some time discovering the horse culture of North Texas, and stay in North Texas Bed and Breakfasts while you do. It is sure to be a memorable vacation.
