Rancho California Horsemen Association was founded in 1969 as a membership-based group of equestrians and horse lovers in the
Temecula
Valley. We are dedicated to preserving and enjoying trails in our area. Our three main goals are: 1) to work with the County of Riverside to create a network of trails backed by legal easements so we can ride throughout the Valle de los Caballos, Wine Country, and out to Vail Lake, Lake Skinner and Diamond Valley Lake; 2) have as many of these as possible be offroad trails; and 3) get the trails onto the County's general plan revision 2009.
Our mission is to..........
- Protect the “horse country” atmosphere of the Temecula Valley, particularly the Valle de los Caballos and Wine Country areas
- Work with local governments (city, county, state) to designate and maintain a network of local and arterial trails (i.e., local “loops” as well as trails linking to major cross-county networks)
- Facilitate networking among local horse lovers so our beautiful trails and horse-keeping areas can be enjoyed together
- Promote the use of our trails as the best way to maintain them!
- Be the voice of equestrians and horse lovers in the Temecula Valley
No hour of life is wasted that is spent in the saddle
