Horse & Carriage DayPhoto Credit: Tony Mazzariello

The horse-drawn carriage was the principal mode of transportation in the early 19th century, so it’s only fitting that Boscobel, a 19th century Federal-style house museum, would once again host The Mid-Hudson Driving Association’s parade of antique horse-drawn vehicles, complete with riders clad in era costumes. Horse & Carriage Day guests will enjoy a day filled with activities. From narrators describing the parade participants as they drive by (at 1pm), competitions where carriages must negotiate an obstacle course, to horse-drawn wagon rides around beautiful Boscobel, there's something for everyone. (Regular admission fees apply.) 
New attractions this year
include horseshoe pitching, an artist offering (at a nominal fee) amazing face and body art for the kids, plus a refreshment stand where visitors can purchase food and drinks.
