Hello Jennifer, the horse ride was amazing. I had so much fun. It was so cool to see the deer. The waterfalls was flowing a lot. I appreciate you inviting me to go riding. It was a pleasure finally meeting you in person. I hope we can meet up again. Take Care and Keep Exploring The Outdoors.
Hi John! Great to meet you in person too! What a fun trail ride! I’m glad we both stayed on and Pearl and Molly got us back safe. I hope we can do another meet- up again too, who knows where? But it will be a great adventure with lots of laughs I’m sure!
This is a forest with very nice green trees...very cool....the river is very clear... A very pleasant mountain hike... It is imperative to preserve the natural environment...
So nice to ride on the horse 😊👍84. Thx Jennifer for sharing another quality hiking footage with great presentation as always 🤩👍84🙏🌷, enjoy watching to the end. Happy Tuesday 😊🌷! God bless 💗💟❤️🙏!
Thanks so much for visiting! I appreciate your time and support- thanks for the emojis! I’m happy you enjoyed the video- have a great weekend! 😃🌳🌳🐴🐴☀️☀️
Outstanding 7 mile Tour presentation, Jennifer, 63 👍 Looks so exciting and excellent! Appreciate the visit, thank you so much! Keep up the great work Friend! Have a good week ahead 🥰
Thanks! It’s a different way to experience the trails and nature - fun to go with a friend! 😄 🌳🌳🐴🐴 We’re having cloudy and cool weather here in Washington, hope you’re having some sunshine, but not too hot! 👌
Loved watching your video...They say that Dogs are mans best friends, but i reckon Horses are up there with them...A peaceful way to travel....thanks Steven
Hi Steven! I’m sure you’re right! If a person had a horse and a dog, he’d be set! I don’t have much experience with horses, but this was sure positive and I’d love to go again sometime! Thanks, Happy Spring! 🌳🌳🐴🐴
I love how you filmed this adventure on the horses with John, so glad you got to do this. That waterfall was such a beautiful place, that is why I love the Smokies. I love the way John styled his hair lately. So cool. The stables look like a great place to take a ride.
Hi Nicole! How are you guys? It was really great to finally meet John ‘in person’. We did have a lot of fun… I felt brave holding on with just one hand to take a few video clips- lol. Taking a ride at these stables was a great experience for us. The horses were nice and calm and we felt pretty comfortable after we got going. It was hard for me to picture all the creeks and streams and seeps until I visited the Smokies myself- and whew, lots of waterfalls too! I loved visiting in May with all the fresh green leaves- wonderful! Thanks for stopping by and saying hi! Have a great week! 😄🌳🌳🐴🐴👌
This is amazing! The scenery is gorgeous as well are the horses! Wonderful ride and trails. Thanks for sharing! Incredible!!! Have a wonderful weekend! ❤️👍🤗
I enjoyed coming along on this wonderful horseback ride. The scenery was so amazing. I love the beautiful green forest also such an amazing view of the waterfalls. Thanks for sharing and have a lovely weekend.
Thanks Gasper! This trip was my first time to the Smokies and I really enjoyed it. Like you said, the forest was so fresh and green. They have a wide variety of deciduous trees, with lots of different leaf shapes, and lots of wonderful creeks and streams. Thanks so much, you too, have a great weekend!!
I have never rode on horseback except one time when I was little and it technically wasn’t a horse it was a pony at the Townsend Fair Show. It was so much fun though! I have also rode through the Cades Cove horse trail by horse and wagon too and it was so much fun as well!! The Smokies has so many great things to get into!! Glad y’all had a great time!
Thanks Gracie - we sure did! I think Smokemont has a horse and wagon option too if you wanted to try that sometime. I would love to do that ride over by Cades Cove, I bet that was wonderful! I stayed in Townsend one night, just before I left, nice little town. I really fell in love with the Smokies, I can see why you love it too. One reason I knew a bit about Cades Cove and wanted to go there, was due to all your lovely videos, so thanks again for sharing your love of animals and wonderful photography and videos with us! ☺️💗💕🌳🌳🐴💗
@@JenniferLupine Awe!! It’s my pleasure and thank you Jennifer for sharing all of your fabulous and beautiful videos with all of us!! I might have to try that at Smokemont! Townsend is truly such a beautiful town and place! I’m glad y’all had a great time!
Hi Don! It was a fun activity for us to try together! Thank goodness the horses were well trained and calm, so we really just had to hold on and enjoy the views! Thanks as always! 😄🌳🌳🐴🐴
Very cool Jennifer, and what a great lush green environment to be riding through . Beautiful and very docile horses especially those brown and white ones.
Hi Chris- thanks, yes, it was lovely! Thankfully the horses were ready for us beginners! They just kept going one step at a time in single file. Going in small groups was a great idea too. Are you an experienced rider? I’ve wanted to trail ride before… I’m sure I’ll go again if I get the opportunity! 😄🐴🐴⛰⛰👌
@@JenniferLupine Hi, no not an experienced rider, I’ve been in the saddle a few times and have always been struck by how carefully the horse places its four feet especially going down hill and how high up you seem. My best analogy was it was like being in my Kayak six feet in the air 😀. I have several friends who are “right into horses” , they all joke that the cheapest thing is the horse, then comes the Horsefloat (trailer) , the vehicle big enough to tow said trailer, the farrier, the vet bills and the grazing !! I preferred not to have them on my farm, they eat too much, are so much more work than looking after cattle and have a habit of leaning on fences and standing in one place. Having said all that my horsie friends love their animals dearly and treat them very carefully. There is a very funny Larson cartoon which shows a veterinary hand book for horses with “shoot” as the correct treatment for all horse ailments 🙁 Beach riding is very popular here and some of the regional parks, I think have specific horse areas. I know there is a big forest park out west the Woodhill Forest that a lot of people ride in. I think horses are a bit like swimming pools, the best ones are your neighbours or friends. Like cattle they are a big animal that deserves respect and knowing how to behave around, I always found a bit of mutual respect not making any sudden of unexpected movements and letting cattle and horses smell you as you get near them goes a long way to staying out of trouble and after all horses can bite while cattle can’t but both of them can easily kick you over a fence. !!😀 I actually hit a horse in my car about 25 years ago which was out of control with its rider and jumped about 10 feet off a high verge and onto the road right in front of me not far from where I was living , the rubber I laid on the road was there for a year and the horse just toppled onto the front of the car smashed the windscreen followed by the rider & I tearing off down the road trying to catch it before somebody coming the other way slammed into it. I found out later that the horse had a habit of “going mental” less than ideal for a teenage rider . I thought my number was up that day one ton of horse at head height .
@@Chris-NZ Whew! I’m very happy that you survived that crazy horse encounter! Very crazy! We see horse riders sometimes on some of the hiking trails here, and we are always quiet and stand well away. I’m for having separate trails for the people / horses (and bicycles). We hiked at the Grand Canyon and saw some people on very calm mules, but on that trail I’d rather walk! Yes, I think you’re right, nice to have friends with horses, or just pay for a trail ride once in awhile!! Riding on the beaches sounds fun too! 🐴🐴🌳
@@JenniferLupine I agree , less than ideal having horses (and their toilet habits) on people trails and I would think bikes coming up behind them would scare the hell out of them.
Hello, thanks for sharing this video! I love your channel, I will support you along the way! Always believe in yourself and keep doing what you love. good luck and have a nice weekend🌹🌹🌺🌻🌼
Hi G&J! Ah, yes, once I got used to Pearl, and knew she was calm and steady I enjoyed the ride! I’m happy you’ve had a great experience with a horse too! Have a great week!
I've had the pleasure of doing some hiking in the Smoky Mountains, but I've never had the opportunity to see any of that beautiful scenery on horseback! Cool idea! Seemed like they picked a smart spot for a break/turnaround point 👍
I’m so glad you’ve been able to hike in the Smokies, so you know what it’s like, wonderful forest and so many creeks and streams. Yes, I agree, it’s a perfect place to dismount, stretch the legs a bit, and see a lovely waterfall/ cascade. It had rained a lot the few days before, so I think we got an extra special view! 🌳🌳🐴🐴
It looks so cool to ride the horse along the stunning scenery! It seems there are tons of activities to do at SMNP. I haven’t explored the park yet except spending a day with my friends. Thanks for sharing Jenn. You do have varieties of videos..! 👍👍👍
Hi Suri! This was a great opportunity - I’d recommend trying a trail ride sometime, if you haven’t yet! I’ve seen them offered other places but haven’t gone for one reason or another. Yes, there’s lots to do at the Smokies.. I think they have a horse and wagon ride too, which might be fun for families. I loved going at the end of May when all the fresh green leaves were out on the trees- people like it Fall too for the change of color! 👌😄🌳🌳🐴🐴
I haven't been on a horse for a while now. But this looks not to difficult! Great meeting John! The unpaved explorer! Nice waterfall. Have a great day! Kaat
Hi Kaat! Right, not too difficult at all! It really was fun- nice change from being on foot! The horses were great going up hill… much faster than walking. I think they’re very used to this trail and they’re well trained. Yes, it was great for me to meet John ‘in person’ too, for the first time. I’ve been following his channel for a couple years… always fun to meet YT friends and adventure together! Hope you’re having great weather and a fun spring… it’s been pretty wet and rainy here in WA! 🤣💦💦
That was an awesome video. So fun to see you two having a great day on the trail. "I love my Molly" I was laughing so hard. So fun. That was a special time you all had together with memories that will last a lifetime! Well done Jennifer and John. @unpavedexplorer
Thanks Steve! We sure had a great time … Molly and Pearl were the perfect horses for us! I loved that too when he said, “I love my Molly!” Thank goodness our horses knew what to do, follow along and stay calm. The creek area there was super pretty and fun to see the deer and the waterfall/ cascade. John was the one who first spotted the deer… that was the only one I saw while hiking in the Smokies. Sure was a fun trip all around…. great to see you and Kristy there too- glad everyone got home safe 👌 🌳🌳🐴🐴
What a wonderful way to explore the trails on the horseback. I would get nervous when riding thro the woods and near the waters. Glad you and John managed well. The Chasteen Creek waterfall is pretty awesome. Have a great weekend. Tc, Jennifer.
Good morning! Thanks- it was a great experience! I can understand being nervous! Fortunately the horses are very well practiced at walking along this trail and they are sure footed next to the water. We had a group of just 6 with our trail guide… once we got going and got used to it we were able to relax. Most places will have a one hour ride if you want to give it a try sometime! Thanks!! 😄🌳🌳🌳
Oh wow this looks absolutely magical! That scenery but seeing and experiencing it from horseback must've been incredible! I hope I get to do something like this one day, this was so much fun to watch! The waterfall looked incredible and Pearl, what a sweet good girl to take you all the way there! Loved this video!
Hello, and thanks so much! I hope you can try a trail ride too! These stables have a one hour ride as an option too. We felt brave to take the longer trip and go see the waterfall. The horses are very well trained and are calm and walk slowly, so you don’t have to worry about them going fast. The trail guide is right nearby to help if you need it. Once you get comfortable it’s really fun to see the views and enjoy riding! Thanks, and have a great weekend! 🌳🌳🐴🐴
@@JenniferLupine oh this sounds wonderful! Thank you for describing it to me, I can picture it much clearer now and feel a deep desire to go. One day, I hope!!
Oh how cool is this!! Such a beautiful and relaxing way to travel And the scenery is stunning Jen, that waterfall was awesome!! Loved the uphill and downhill sections, and didn’t realise that the riding style has to be different for each. Makes perfect sense when you think about it. What a great day out that looked 👍👍👍
Good morning Dave! It’s a great way to travel, and much easier going up hill than walking! The horses were really steady and calm so after a bit we got more comfortable. Beautiful to see the fresh spring forest and the waterfall/ cascade. I will definitely go again sometime if I have the opportunity! Thanks for dropping by! Happy Friday! 🐴🐴🌳🌳
Yea, I’m always on foot, so it was fun to try a trail ride! Thankfully the horses were very calm and so even beginners can have a good time. I really enjoyed Cherokee, especially at the end of May, everything was very fresh and green. It’s pretty far away for me, but I hope I can go again some day! Thanks! 🐴🐴🌳🌳
Fantastic nature capture!! that's very interesting to see beautiful the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. I really appreciate your creator video so well, and i can see such a beautiful waterfall and nature relaxing around you and other guys horse-riding through beautiful green earth. Thank you so much for sharing this video : ) take good care and see you next exploring the outdoors.
Thank you my friend! It’s great to hear from you- I’m happy you enjoyed seeing the Smoky Mountains and what our horse riding adventure was like! Have a great weekend! 🌳🌳🐴🐴

Hi John! Great to meet you in person too! What a fun trail ride! I’m glad we both stayed on and Pearl and Molly got us back safe. I hope we can do another meet- up again too, who knows where? But it will be a great adventure with lots of laughs I’m sure!

Good morning! Thanks! The Unpaved Explorer had a great adventure- thanks for stopping by! 🌳🌳🐴🐴
Riding on horseback would be so awesome! The area looks so lush and green. 😀
Hi Donna! It really was awesome! The horses were calm and steady and it was another great way to enjoy nature. Thanks!
🌳🌳🐴🐴
Enjoying the tour in the forest. This is so refreshing. Nice trip!😀
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for visiting! 🌳🌳🐴🐴
Nice sharing 🤝😍
Thank you! Cheers! 🌳🌳🐴🐴

Hello, thanks friend! 🐴🐴🌳🌳
I haven't been on a horse for a while now. But this looks not to difficult! Great meeting John! The unpaved explorer!
Nice waterfall. Have a great day! Kaat
Hi Kaat! Right, not too difficult at all! It really was fun- nice change from being on foot! The horses were great going up hill… much faster than walking. I think they’re very used to this trail and they’re well trained. Yes, it was great for me to meet John ‘in person’ too, for the first time. I’ve been following his channel for a couple years… always fun to meet YT friends and adventure together! Hope you’re having great weather and a fun spring… it’s been pretty wet and rainy here in WA! 🤣💦💦
The visuals captured are pretty good, especially those from the horseback. Slow and steady.
Thanks! These horses and trail were perfect for us! 🌳🌳🐴🐴
That was an awesome video. So fun to see you two having a great day on the trail. "I love my Molly" I was laughing so hard. So fun. That was a special time you all had together with memories that will last a lifetime! Well done Jennifer and John. @unpavedexplorer
Thanks Steve! We sure had a great time … Molly and Pearl were the perfect horses for us! I loved that too when he said, “I love my Molly!” Thank goodness our horses knew what to do, follow along and stay calm. The creek area there was super pretty and fun to see the deer and the waterfall/ cascade. John was the one who first spotted the deer… that was the only one I saw while hiking in the Smokies. Sure was a fun trip all around…. great to see you and Kristy there too- glad everyone got home safe 👌
🌳🌳🐴🐴
Thank you for taking us there 🥰
Thanks for joining us! 🌳🌳🐴🐴
What a wonderful way to explore the trails on the horseback. I would get nervous when riding thro the woods and near the waters. Glad you and John managed well. The Chasteen Creek waterfall is pretty awesome. Have a great weekend. Tc, Jennifer.
Good morning! Thanks- it was a great experience! I can understand being nervous! Fortunately the horses are very well practiced at walking along this trail and they are sure footed next to the water. We had a group of just 6 with our trail guide… once we got going and got used to it we were able to relax. Most places will have a one hour ride if you want to give it a try sometime! Thanks!! 😄🌳🌳🌳
Oh wow this looks absolutely magical! That scenery but seeing and experiencing it from horseback must've been incredible! I hope I get to do something like this one day, this was so much fun to watch! The waterfall looked incredible and Pearl, what a sweet good girl to take you all the way there! Loved this video!
Hello, and thanks so much! I hope you can try a trail ride too! These stables have a one hour ride as an option too. We felt brave to take the longer trip and go see the waterfall. The horses are very well trained and are calm and walk slowly, so you don’t have to worry about them going fast. The trail guide is right nearby to help if you need it. Once you get comfortable it’s really fun to see the views and enjoy riding!
Thanks, and have a great weekend!

@@JenniferLupine oh this sounds wonderful! Thank you for describing it to me, I can picture it much clearer now and feel a deep desire to go. One day, I hope!!
Very nice video❤ I enjoy watching the scenery are amazing and the horse riding are so fantastic thanks for sharing👍
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you! The horses really were amazing!
🌳🌳🐴🐴
Oh how cool is this!!
Such a beautiful and relaxing way to travel
And the scenery is stunning Jen, that waterfall was awesome!!
Loved the uphill and downhill sections, and didn’t realise that the riding style has to be different for each. Makes perfect sense when you think about it.
What a great day out that looked 👍👍👍
Good morning Dave! It’s a great way to travel, and much easier going up hill than walking! The horses were really steady and calm so after a bit we got more comfortable. Beautiful to see the fresh spring forest and the waterfall/ cascade. I will definitely go again sometime if I have the opportunity! Thanks for dropping by! Happy Friday! 🐴🐴🌳🌳
@@JenniferLupine Happy Friday to you too Jen. 👍👍👍
Very nice
Thanks friend! 🌳🌳🐴🐴

Thank you! You too! 🌳🌳🐴🐴
Wonderful trail, the horse ride looks fun.
Hello- thanks, yes, it was a fun adventure - thanks for joining us!
Have a lovely week! 🌳🌳🐴🐴👌
Nice video Jennifer, love the trail ride. Take care and catch you on the next one 👍
Sure thing! Thanks! Hope you’re getting some sunshine- here in Seattle we’re still getting lots of rain! 😄💦💦💦
Nice change of pace! Looks like a lovely day out - very peaceful!! Cherokee is a beautiful area - we were there years ago!!
Yea, I’m always on foot, so it was fun to try a trail ride! Thankfully the horses were very calm and so even beginners can have a good time. I really enjoyed Cherokee, especially at the end of May, everything was very fresh and green. It’s pretty far away for me, but I hope I can go again some day! Thanks! 🐴🐴🌳🌳
Fantastic nature capture!! that's very interesting to see beautiful the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
I really appreciate your creator video so well, and i can see such a beautiful waterfall and nature relaxing around you and other guys horse-riding through beautiful green earth. Thank you so much for sharing this video : ) take good care and see you next exploring the outdoors.
Thank you my friend! It’s great to hear from you- I’m happy you enjoyed seeing the Smoky Mountains and what our horse riding adventure was like! Have a great weekend! 🌳🌳🐴🐴
