Reminder: This Sunday, April 27, Alanwood will be open again to guest-riders. - Arrive between 10:30am and 2pm, and explore the private property at your own pace. On 240 acres of rolling terrain you'll find beautiful open fields, shady well-maintained trails through mature woods, and a lot of smaller creeks as well as Broad Run that you can cross in several shallow areas.
The Bluebells came earlier than expected this years, but there are still some out! All trails are open, and you are invited to see our facilities and the horses living at Alanwood. The signs from our recent Bluebell tour are still posted, and invite you to a relaxed and easy ride. A new scenic trail along Broad Run will be opened to riders.

No pre-registration is needed for this event, just come as a walk-in and bring your current Coggins. At arrival we'll ask you to sign a waiver. Fee is $40, payable by Venmo, cash or check.

Trailer parking is in a wide meadow close to the Nalani rescue horses. You may bring a snack, meet friends and relax a bit along your horses after the ride.

Too much rain in the forecast!!! The Bluebell Ride from Sat 12 has been rescheduled to Sunday 13th (arrival 10am-1pm). We are sorry for this change in schedule, but hope you will be able to join us. The Bluebells are gorgeous!

Welcome back to Alanwood! The chilly temperatures this winter have made it tricky to pin down a perfect date for our Bluebell Ride along Broad Run. So, we’ve decided to keep things easy, skip the pre-registration, and offer a choice of 3 days in April for guests to ride the trails:

• Saturday, April 12th + April 19th: 10am – 2pm (last entry at 1pm)
• Sunday April 27: 11am - 3pm (last entry at 2pm)

We’ll keep you posted with updates about the bloom as the dates get closer. We are excited to welcome you back to enjoy this beautiful tradition with your horses.

Alanwood Farm

Established in 2015, Alanwood Farm is a picturesque, high-end horse farm in Broad Run, VA, just minutes from Warrenton and less than an hour from DC. This haven for the non-competitive leisure rider has 240 acres of unspoiled land, and several streams and brooks where your horse can relax whilst on a ride through some of the 15 miles of regularly-maintained trails. We are a quiet, low key horse barn under private management with highly attentive, experienced, and committed staff.

Alanwood Farm is designed to be a paradise for both human and horse. While we pamper the herd with daily, attentive care, we also try to keep them as close as possible to their natural living conditions with an abundance of pasture grazing and outdoor access, weather permitting. Twelve full acres of well-designed paddocks, high-quality grass, home-grown hay, lots of shaded areas, and exceptional fly control allow this. Each paddock is unique, providing a variety of experiences for the horses. Additionally, we feature hand-build natural obstacle courses and jumps made from locally sourced timber.

Nestled into the natural wooded surroundings, you’ll find an outdoor riding arena, a 60-foot round pen, and a warm-up ring with a lunging pad. The tree canopy provides natural air conditioning in warmer weather and traps heat in cooler months, creating a gorgeous, temperate setting for working with your horse.

Alanwood boarders will not only enjoy all of the basic equine facilities, but also the unique features that really make the place special. There’s a peaceful lily pond with ducks, multiple decks, gardens, and benches around the property, climate-controlled lounges, free WiFi, coffee, and snacks (including boiled eggs laid by the resident free-ranging chickens). For those who wish to stay overnight, there are campsites on the property as well as rooms in a guest house available (nightly rental fees apply).
