Horse Drawn Carriage Ride

December 14 @ 12:00 pm - 3:00 pm

November 28th – December 28th, 12:00pm – 3:00pm. Free Horse Drawn Carriage Rides

Beginning the weekend after Thanksgiving (November 28th-30th), the Town of Wethersfield will be partnering with Double M Ranch Horse Drawn Carriage Rides to deliver free rides in two spectacular locations in the Town of Wethersfield on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. These rides will continue through the New Year’s, during the long weekends of Friday-Sunday throughout the month of December, on the following dates (December 5th-7th, December 12th-14th, December 19th-21th and December 26th-28th).

Carriage rides are first come first serve and launching points are in front of the First Church (250 Main Street) on Fridays and Saturdays and at the Wethersfield Green on Sundays. It’s a perfect addition to the holiday season, with so many local businesses to visit for shopping or a bit to eat when you are through with your ride! These rides are free of charge.

On Friday and Saturday, the route being followed for this historic ride will run along Main Street to River Road and back. On Sunday, the route the Horse & Carriage will take is to circle the Broad Street Green. Some rides will be in a small, old fashioned carriage designed for smaller groups and others will be a slightly larger hay ride style wagon.

In case of inclement weather (snow, ice), the event could be temporarily cancelled and rescheduled to dates in January. Keep an eye on the Town of Wethersfield official website (www.wethersfieldct.gov).

The Town would like to express appreciation to the Wethersfield State Delegation for securing funding for this program!
