Location: Bozeman, Montana, United States
Eagle Mount Bozeman is an adaptive recreation and equine-assisted services program in Bozeman, Montana. The horsemanship program is centered on adaptive horseback riding and unmounted horse work for individuals with disabilities, with horses used to build confidence, patience, self-esteem, social skills, flexibility, balance, and muscle tone. It feels like a well-established program where horsemanship is part of a larger mission to open outdoor experiences to people who might not otherwise have access to them.
The horsemanship side of Eagle Mount is clearly structured and professionally run. Its adaptive horsemanship instructors and program are certified through PATH Intl., and public references also identify the facility as a PATH Intl. Premier Accredited Center. That gives the program a strong therapeutic riding foundation while still fitting within Eagle Mount’s wider recreation model.
About This Program
Eagle Mount Bozeman provides adaptive horsemanship for children, teens, adults, and seniors with disabilities, along with broader therapeutic recreation opportunities. The horsemanship program includes mounted riding and unmounted lessons focused on horse handling and care, giving participants more than one way to engage with horses based on their goals and abilities.
The program has a practical and skill-building feel rather than a narrow lesson-only format. Riding is used to support physical goals like balance, flexibility, and muscle tone, while unmounted work helps participants develop relationship-building, patience, and confidence through direct horse interaction. That makes the program feel both therapeutic and empowering in a way that fits Eagle Mount’s broader adaptive recreation mission.

Facility and Setting
