Niran Farm

Try not to hold your breath as riders clear rails at speed, then switch gears for the almost meditative control of dressage. Niran Farm’s in-house equestrian competition brings two days of show jumping and dressage to Manik Valley, with riders demonstrating the kind of balance, power and precision that looks effortless until you remember there is a large, opinionated animal involved. The event is open to spectators, horse lovers and riders across levels, with countryside air, green views and creature comforts on site. Whether you are there for the sport, the setting or just the horses, it is one of the weekend’s more polished ways to get outdoors.   June 20-21. Free for spectators. Niran Equestrian Center Competition, Niran Equestrian Center at Niran Farm. 8am-5pm
