Testimonial:
"For the past several years I have been using the canter track at Dara Knot. It is beautifully maintained and does a great job of utilizing the hills that the property has to offer. The conditioning we do that track plays a huge role in getting the horses well prepared for their Spring goals" Woodge Fulton, 5 Star Event Rider

We are setting courses for this afternoon!!!! Wet but drying!!! Come and join us!!

Thank you Michelle Koppin for taking the time to highlight the Gallop and Conditioning Space at Dara Knot!!! Good luck at Movern Michelle!!

Even though the farm is closed for schooling right now- showing off these drone videos that we had done reminds me what a phenomenal place it is!!! We are blanketed in green right now, rather than the tame fall brown color, but it’s still beautiful!! We will re open for schooling in September with Newly set courses! Newly marked Gallop space! Some fun show jump courses set in the lower ring!! Hoping to add some jumper nights into the schedule and of course the Aiken Derby Series will kick off again starting end of September with first in at The Vista!!! Come join us this fall at Dara Knot!!!
