📍 Altadena, CA
Full-service stable at the foot of the San Gabriel Mountains offering riding lessons for ages 5 to adult, summer camps, and horse-assisted coaching. Direct trail access into the mountains. Historic site of Ridgeview Stables.
Hidden gem horse stables and riding lessons facility located on the site of the Historic Ridgeview Stables (later the Kellogg Standardbred Stables). Full service horse boarding, riding lessons, and horse assisted coaching programs for humans. Family friendly. Don't miss seeing Coco the cute burro!
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families with children aged 5 and up who want structured riding instruction in a rustic outdoor setting with real trail access. The caring owners and peaceful mountain backdrop create a genuine equestrian environment rather than a tourist attraction.

“We had the pleasure of meeting the owners who hosted our friends for a lovely brunch. What a kind family! They purchased the barn six years ago and made it so cute and elegant for our guests.”

Overview
Altadena Stables sits on a historic equine property at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains, 20 minutes from downtown Los Angeles. Programs include riding lessons for ages 5 through adult, summer camps, boarding, and horse-assisted coaching. An arena with automatic lighting and a wash rack support year-round use. Direct mountain trail access extends rides beyond the arena for more experienced students. The stable is home to Coco, a resident burro.
