Seguine Equestrian Center is a public horseback riding facility in the Prince's Bay section of southern Staten Island, one of the few remaining equestrian facilities within New York City limits.
The center is located near the historic Seguine Mansion and the broader Seguine estate area, which preserves the agricultural and equestrian heritage of southern Staten Island.
Staten Island's rural character, which persisted well into the 20th century, included farms, orchards, and horse stables that have almost entirely disappeared as the borough suburbanized. The Seguine Equestrian Center preserves a trace of this agrarian past.
The facility offers riding lessons, trail rides through the surrounding parkland, and boarding services. The trails connect to the broader Greenbelt trail system, allowing riders to explore miles of forest and meadow.
Seguine Equestrian Center provides a uniquely rural experience within New York City, where the ability to ride horses through forests feels like a different century rather than just a different borough.
