We love to have visitors meet and interact with the minis at the Elegius Mini Equine Sanctuary. We offer guided tours of the sanctuary to individuals, groups and families. Generally the tour lasts about an hour. There is no charge for the tour, but donations are always gratefully accepted. Guests should wear comfortable clothing and sturdy shoes or boots (you will be at a farm!) . Due to our insurance policy we cannot allow dogs or other animals on the premises. We are sad about that, but do keep in mind that some of our minis are donkeys and mules that may have been used to keep dogs away from flocks of sheep or goats and therefore could pose a risk to your beloved canine! Please note that the equine inherent risk laws apply to visitors to the sanctuary and that you will be interacting with our minis at your own risk. If you would like to visit EMES, please call us at 540-396-4720 to schedule your tour.
