Weather and Clothing
Weather can be a very important factor to consider when planning your day to Jayell Ranch Family Adventure Park. We are an outdoor amusement park and we will continue to operate in most weather conditions including rain; therefore, a rain jacket is something to consider packing in case the clouds roll in during your time on the ranch. Plastic ponchos however are not permitted on horseback due to it can scare the horses.
Clothing is an important factor to consider. During the warmer months it may be tempting to wear minimal clothing; keep in mind you will be wearing a full body harness, be riding a horse, and or riding ATVs. If you are joining us during colder months, we recommend wearing warm layers, thick socks, gloves, etc. Coming with hand or foot warmers in your pockets isn’t a bad idea either.
Wearing the right shoes is also important for your experience. Closed toed shoes are preferred but not required. If you do lose a shoe or any other objects on the trail we will try to retrieve those for you at the end of the day.
Also note that if you take any objects on tour that could be dropped, we will try to retrieve those objects but at the end of day. Cameras, phones, gum, money, chapstick, etc. should be carried in a backpack of some sort. We do have drawstrings backpacks on property for purchase if needed. We cannot hold your personal items in our sales office.
We have a zero tolerance policy for alcohol, guns, knives, weapons, and or any kind of illegal substance. Sevier County Sheriffs Office will enforce this policy.
