If you come through BEC you probably have seen (or heard) Cody, our livestock guardian dog. He is seven years old today!

It is with deep regret that Biltmore Equestrian Center is unable to host the Biltmore Challenge and AERC National Championship this May. Despite substantial recovery efforts from Helene, we do not feel we can offer the environment and experience that our endurance riders expect and deserve. We do plan to host the Biltmore Fall Endurance Ride to benefit Hope for Horses on September 20, 2025 with LD, 50 and 75 mile distances. We hope to see you then.

Biltmore Show Series Updates::

Post Hurricane Helene, we were hopeful that recovery efforts here at BEC would allow us to start planning for some shows this coming spring and get back on track after a chaotic fall season. Unfortunately, delays in rebuilding efforts will not allow us to host any shows this spring or summer. If possible, our goal would be to host a show or two in the fall, but as of now we will not be releasing any show calendar.
We are deeply saddened by this news, but I wanted to take the time to thank all of you who have participated in any of our show series! You make our shows so special and we genuinely hope we can get things back on track later this year. We love being able to provide fun filled show opportunities for our area, and hope to welcome you all back soon!

Edit to add: Our Biltmore Challenge Endurance Ride WILL still be held in May. We are focusing our efforts towards hosting this event, but will have no infrastructure for any other shows at this time.
