Camp Giddy Up is a unique equestrian experience provided by the National Ability Center in scenic Park City, Utah. Camp Giddy Up is a week long day-camp that teaches basic english and western riding and horsemanship skills in a safe and fun environment.  Camp Giddy Up is open to Beginner and Intermediate level riders ages 8 and up.

At Camp Giddy Up, campers will learn how to ride, but also how to care for a horse.  Daily duties include haltering, leading, brushing, cleaning out hooves, saddling, feeding, cleaning out stalls and riding. Other horse related activities such as games, vaulting and pony cart driving will be offered. In an effort to teach complete horse care, campers will also participate in classroom discussions on history of the horse, horse care, confirmation, colors, markings and breeds. Each group will have a chance to create a craft to remind them of their week at Camp Giddy Up.

Our program offers excellent instruction to campers just learning to ride as well as providing the experienced rider with finer skills of equitation and horsemanship. The last day of camp, a skills demonstration will be presented by all of the campers for friends and family to see. Personal achievement awards will be given to the campers who participate.
