Competition schedules can be found at Tryon.com/dressage. 2022 TRYON RESORT VISITOR GUIDE 17 17
Driving Like the sport of Eventing, but with a horse-drawn carriage, the sport of Driving tests a handler’s skills over three phases - Dressage, Marathon, and Cones - in Singles, Pairs, and Four-in-hand divisions. This sport demands horse-and-driver communication, finesse, and teamwork through three challenging phases of competition. Contests can be found at TIEC in spring and fall seasons, with full details at Tryon.com/driving. 18 18 2022 TRYON 2022 TRYON RESORT RESORT VISITOR FALL/WINTER GUIDEVISITOR GUIDE
