The heat can sneak up on riders and a little preparation can make the difference between an enjoyable ride and a miserable one.

Here are a few things I encourage riders to think about before heading to the barn this summer:

💧 Hydrate BEFORE You Arrive
Don't wait until you're thirsty at the barn. Start drinking water throughout the day before your lesson or ride. Proper hydration helps your body regulate temperature, improves concentration, and can reduce fatigue when riding in the heat.

👖 Yes, You Still Need Long Pants
Even in hot weather, long pants help protect your legs from chafing, pinching, saddle rubs, and scrapes around the barn. If traditional breeches feel too warm, look for lightweight, moisture-wicking fabrics designed for summer riding.

👢 Boots Are Still Required
No sandals, flip-flops, or open-toed shoes around horses. Proper riding or paddock boots protect your feet from being stepped on and provide the heel needed for safe riding.
If your feet tend to overheat, many riders find that thin merino wool socks or moisture-wicking athletic socks actually keep feet cooler and drier than thick cotton socks.

👕 Choose Light-Colored Clothing
Light colors absorb less heat than dark colors and can help you stay cooler. Many riders also find that lighter colors attract fewer flies. Lightweight long sleeves and sun shirts with neck coverage can provide additional protection from the sun.

⛑️ Helmet & Head Protection
Vented helmets improve airflow.
Tie back long hair for both comfort and safety. Use visors or hats for sun protection off-horse.

🧴 Don't Forget Sunscreen
Sweat-resistant sunscreen is your friend during summer riding. Apply before you arrive and remember to reapply if you're spending most of the day at the barn.

🚰 Bring Water
Bringing your own water bottle ensures you always have easy access to hydration. Bonus points if you can easily reach it between rides or lessons.

❄️ Consider Cooling Aids
Some riders find cooling towels, misting bottles, neck wraps, or small personal fans helpful before and after riding, especially during particularly hot days.

🐴 Don't Forget About Your Horse
If you're hot, chances are your horse is hot as well. Summer riding often means spending a few extra minutes helping your horse cool down after work.
Allow time for a proper cool-down, make sure your horse has access to fresh water. Also be prepared to adjust your riding plans, shorten your session, riding early and late or take more frequent breaks on especially hot days.

🕷️ Check for Ticks
Tick season is here. After spending time at the barn, remember to check yourself, your children, and your pets for ticks. The sooner a tick is found and removed, the better.

Do you have any favorite summer riding tips or cooling products that you love?
