Nice trail ride down to and along the river on a beautiful sunny day. Everyone at the stables was friendly, helpful, and Kim was a great trail guide. Loved meeting Sunshine, Sundance and Cashmere (I think that was her horse's name). Thanks for letting us book a same day ride with you! We enjoyed it. read more

My family and I have recently moved to Fortuna and absolutely needed to find a place for us to get connected to horses. We found Kim and Sierra at KS and after just a few lessons for our boys and my wife, knew that KS would be a great fit. Very encouraged and blessed by the KS family. read more

The ride was enjoyable. The land was beautiful and the horse wonderful to ride. The trail guides were friendly. I docked a star due to my ride starting late and being cut short because the horses weren't ready in time, but still being charged the full price. Would have appreciated getting the full hour and a half. read more

I loved my trail ride + lesson. Kim and her staff are everything you'd want from a horse stable -- knowledgable, experienced, and they put safety FIRST. I've done a handful of rides since childhood, this ride was a great way to ease back into it. I will be back soon, and bringing friends. All the horses were so sweet and beautiful. The trail was absolutely stunning, worth every penny! read more

Kim was awesome. So many great stories along the trails. Super friendly, not just doing it for the money she's doing it for the people. Awesome horses too!! Loved the filly's. She definitely made me feel comfortable during this ride. 10/10 recommend. Don't pass this by!! . I have ridden for years and still had fun. Thanks again Kim! read more

Just what I needed! Due to PTSD from previous riding experiences, the owner Kim was just who I needed to get back on a horse. She tuned into my anxiety and was by my side throughout the entire ride. The horses were well behaved and easy. My family enjoyed themselves, too. read more

We had an amazing ride for our Easter outing and it was all do to the care and instruction Kim gave us in setting us up with our horses. It was a beautiful day, and the trail was an easy one, but still very beautiful. My husband and I had wanted to try a horse trail ride for years, but had just not had the opportunity. I'm so glad we waited and that we found Korobi Stables and Kim. We will be back for lessons! read more

Great experience. Our guide Helena was awesome. She was very knowledgeable and had lots of great tips. She also shared lots of info about the area along the ride.Horses were well kept and easy to manage for first timers. My 9 year old loved riding King. He was even able to get him to trot. If we ever come back to the north coast we will definitely do it again. read more

I have been taking lessons from Kim for a few months . I have gained so much more than just learning to ride from Kim. Physically I am stronger with improved balance. As an older person that's huge! Kim is patient and a great teacher . I've also gained a connection to the horses and a friend. Karobi stable isn't just a business. it's a family. read more

Kim and her team took such good care of us today. We had a great adventure along the Eel River. Her horses are very well cared for. My only regret is we didn't ride for a longer time. I look forward to the next time read more

Great ride!! Super fun, beautiful area and all the horses had stories and personalities and were great to work with.

My 90 minute trail ride was fantastic. The guide, the horse, and the scenery were all wonderful.

Chloe was my guide and she was absolutely wonderful. It was a privilege to have such an experienced local taking me on my trail ride. We had so much fun and most importantly she made me feel safe the entire time. I was a bit out of my eminent but Chloe was patient and the utmost professional guide I could ask for. Thanks Chloe! read more

Kim is wonderful. She is a great teacher and I have never ridden with someone who so freely shares her knowledge and joy of horses. We have taken many many rides with her as well as lessons and we highly recommend. Go! You'll love it. read more

We had a fabulous time with drover Casey. She clearly loves teaching kids and my 9 year old granddaughter had a non stop lesson during our 2 hour trail ride in Humboldt Redwoods State Park. Everything looks better astride a horse and that includes these majestic redwoods. We will look them up next time we are up here. They have a great stables as well, full of kids of all ages. read more

So knowledgeable and kind, we are thrilled to have found Kim and her team!

Kim is an absolute gem and beyond sweet and kind. Her horses are beautifully trained and extremely skilled. My wife and I drove 5 1/2 hours for her birthday weekend away and I wanted to surprise my wife with some horse back riding. Kim offered us a guided trip through the glorious redwoods for two hours just us two and her. It was everything I could have wished for, my wife was so happy and she said she felt completely at peace. Would definitely recommend and we can't wait until we can make it out again. read more

Great place. I took my wife there a couple months after she had my son. Very accommodating of experienced and novice riders. She also talked about how many horses are rescues, so supporting her supports a good cause. read more

This was hands-down one of the best experiences at a stable I have ever had I took a six-year-old little girl and a gentleman that I've never really had any experience around horses before the owner went with us on the short trail ride after giving us a explanation on how to handle the horses properly for us and for them the horses were the most well mannered horses I had ever been in contact with and it was definitely the most informative experience I've ever had family that but the trail was beautiful I highly recommend coming to This stable For a date night or any other writing event we will be setting up the six-year-old with writing lessons soon in the future thank you so much everybody at the stable it was a great experience read more

I did the beginner's trail ride for my boyfriend's birthday yesterday. The women who accompanied us on the ride were very beginner friendly and kind, they communicated clear about how to act around/on the horses and were encouraging. The horses were patient and the women gave us a tutorial and small test run on how to maneuver the horses before our ride. It is clear that they are passionate about what they do and that they love and take care of their horses. We took a 1.5hour ride along the river and alongside some small farms in Fortuna. I loved being able to ride a horse for the first time and have a beautiful experience out in nature at the same time. I would definitely recommend booking a ride with Korobi Stables if you are a beginner or experienced alike. The person I spoke to on the phone leading up to the ride was very kind and helpful, the booking system they use online is great too. read more

While visiting the area, my kids (4 and 7) decided they wanted to try horseback riding. I found Korobi Stables's helpful website and easily booked a 1 hour lesson. We arrived early and the staff allowed the kids to help with grooming and gave them a few treats to offer the horses, which was a great way for them to become comfortable at the ranch. Kim did their lesson and was wonderful meeting them at their comfort level. They had a great time. Next time we are in the area, we hope to go back for a trail ride! read more

Kim, the owner, really made a big difference on the experience I had with horseback riding. I was really really nervous at first when we were first brought to meet the horses but after Kim described a few characteristics of each horse, she picked one that was most suit us based on her judgement on us (if we looked nervous, excited, etc) and it was right on spot! Kim was very welcoming, calm, and will stay next to you the entire way if you need her to. Kim was amazing with her horses and she has great workers too (Thanks Tommy!). If you are nervous about horses but still want to try it out. I definitely 150% recommend her especially if it'll be your first time with horses. read more

One of my best experiences on my vacation here in Humboldt! You don't find a lot of opportunities to ride horses around the SF Bay Area where I am from. It was my first time riding a horse, ever. Kim (the owner) coached me on riding during a 1-hr trail ride to a nearby river. I learned how to steer, trot, and stop. At one point I accidentally got the horse to go into a run but I used the training to slow it down immediately. But what fun that was!!! Kim said that she can teach me more on future lessons how to gallop and do more sophisticated things on the horse. Kim's horses have gotten the best training. The horses obey the rider and do not have noticeable "bad" habits. For instance, some horses might give in to the urge to run down a slope but Kim's horses maintain whatever speed you "set" them to regardless of slope. Pretty amazing training. If it's your first time riding a horse, I definitely recommend this stable. Don't ruin your impression of horses with a badly trained horse! I felt super safe on horseback here and I will definitely return in the future. read more

Hands down this was the best stable I've had the pleasure of going to. It had a warm, homey feel and the horses were the most well trained horses I've ever ridden. The owner Kim and her helpers (Bobby and Trista) were SO accommodating and welcoming! Kim and her staff are very knowledgeable about horses and you can tell they truly care for the animals and the rider's safety. My boyfriend and I had an amazing hour long trail ride. Kim helped us feel very comfortable on the horses and gave us some very professional, helpful tips to apply while riding. Needless to say I will definitely be back to take lessons, ride more trails and do overnight camping trips with these amazing horses and people! read more

Please do yourself a favor and BOOK A RIDE WITH KIM (owner). She is so sweet and awesome, and we couldn't have had a better experience. Kim is very thorough and clear when explaining how to guide your horse, and will demonstrate for you. It was my first horseback riding experience and Kim could tell I was nervous to start but she was very encouraging and doesn't rush you at all. She's great at giving you verbal instructions while you're riding, and the horses are so incredibly well trained that you don't even feel scared. Kim really made it easy. I rode King and my boyfriend rode Chex, both were such gentle and nice horses. And did I mention extremely well-trained???? My goodness it's amazing. Like Kim said, 50% of it is confidence and the other 50% is how good the horse is, and how good the horse is definitely feeds into your confidence. During the ride we talked about the horses, her life, our life -- it was good small talk. The day we went we also had beautiful weather so everything was just great. I can see why people fall in love with horseback riding, and after such a great experience with Kim I definitely want to go again. Unfortunately, Korobi Stables is a bit out of the way (a 5-hour drive from home...) but if I were in the area again, I'd go back. Anyone passing by or in Fortuna should give it a go and book some time with Kim! read more

What a great way to welcome the new year, 2012! One of my resolutions was to get on a horse and go horseback riding. What a great experience. I travel to Fortuna quite a bit for business and a friend arranged a horseback riding experience with Korobi Stables. The owner, Kim, was just great from beginning to end. She was helpful, encouraging, positive and a great teacher. We helped saddle the horses and she gave each us a thorough background on our horses and what to expect. Once on the horses her guidance was thourough and helpful. On our ride, we rode down trails, streets and on the Eel River. She was attentive during the ride always giving feedback, both to help and encourage. Along the way, Trista was always at the rear keeping an eye on us. Heights (I know the top of a horse may not be high to you!) and large animals make me tense. But this experience was exactly wanted I needed to make me want to come back for more. Happy New Year! read more

I had an amazing experience getting back on a horse after not riding for almost a decade. The trail ride was beautiful. I can't wait to go back for another one! read more

We had a very joyful experience for the whole family at Korobi Stables. The horses were wonderful and carefully selected for each person in our group of four riders. The path we rode on was very beautiful too. read more

Amazing trail ride with an amazing guide. Such a beautiful experience for our family of four. The horses were so sweet and calm and the history of the river valley was breathtaking on horseback. Our guide's heart is 100% in horses and it shows! Highly, highly recommend and will be going again if visiting Humboldt County! read more

What an amazing ride! I got a lot of personalized feedback on how to improve as a rider. I felt safe and had a blast.
