Rescue, Rehab, Retire
At San Diego Trail Company, we don’t just work with horses—we care for them with compassion and commitment. Through our rescue, rehabilitation, and retirement program, we provide a safe and dignified life for horses that have been abandoned, injured, or retired from active use. Each horse goes through a thoughtful recovery process and, when ready, is offered for adoption or sale to responsible homes. We also offer ways to support the mission through donations, corporate memberships, and grant-funded programs that ensure long-term care for these noble animals. This service reflects our core mission: to give every horse a second chance and a life of respect and care.

Our Customer Reviews
Posted on Jeffrey SimonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a wonderful morning riding the trails accessed from the ranch. Beautiful part of the county and a true delight to ride through the SDTC facility. Next time….longer ride, today was a shorter ride, by our choice, due to the heat wave in the San Diego’s east county. Still, was perfect and highly recommend.Posted on Shaakirah RansomTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an amazing experience celebrating my daughter's birthday with a horseback riding adventure! Our guide was incredibly nice, patient, and informative. She took the time to explain everything and was so gentle with my daughters, making them feel comfortable and confident. I really appreciated how she made their first horseback riding experience so cool and memorable. We will definitely be back again!
