Instagram has risen to the top of social media popularity. The image-based platform has over a billion likes shared on it per day and is an excellent place to make new friends, market your business or products, or see what the rest of the world is doing
The equestrian community on Instagram is impressive. From around the globe, equestrians share photos of their horses and their equestrian lifestyle. From dressage competitions to Europe to galloping across the grassy plains in Kansas, equestrians can unite their passion for horses via Instagram.
It was very hard to limit the best horse Instagram accounts to only a few!
Here are my favorite equestrian Instagram accounts:
MotherofStallions
https://www.instagram.com/p/BoE-0oPHDg9/?taken-by=motherofstallions
Motherofstallions is created by Eva Virago and seems to have a slight Game of Thrones spin to her fun account name. Eva’s profile clearly states her relationship and goals with horses by stating “trust, magic, and unity.” Not only are her horses and scenery captivating, but her posts and sayings are thought provoking and interesting. Motherofstallions provides a unique understanding of why horses act they way they do. She also touches on why WE act the way we do as well, and that humane treatment of these beautiful creatures needs to be held to the highest standard.
Wildhorsephotographycollective
This account is also known as WildHorsePC and provides gorgeous images of wild horses from around the globe. I like this account because of the horse-only scenery. It is really neat to see people with their horses but this account shows the wild horses and the lack of human involvement. This equestrian Instagram account also lists their website in their bio to see more.

Are you ready for a dose of absolute cuteness? 6-year-old Kinley is already an equestrian in the making. Her mom runs her account (it says in the profile) and it is filled with heart tugging images of Kinley and her adorable pony. Kinley is not only a great rider already, she has a style and a personality shown through her photos that will bring a smile to your face. She is already a brand ambassador for a few popular equestrian brands, and this tiny rider is going to have a bright future ahead of her.
Claireporterphotography
Claire Porter is an award winning photographer, and one glance at the photos pf her account can confirm that. She has incredible images of horses and of the equestrian lifestyle. Claire’s photos cultivate a sense of gratitude and awe for the equestrian lifestyle, and this is one account you don’t want to miss. You can also shop her prints listed on her website in her bio.
Life_equestrian
Some beautiful California vibes can be found on the life_equestrian Instagram account. This account is full of style and elegance and of course, that California sunshine. Based out of L.A., it features a stunning images of horse and rider and some of the best of an stylish rider and the highlights of an equestrian life.
Theemotionalpony
Join a 16.1 hand gorgeous paint gelding named Manu and his witty owner for some laughs and smiles on theemotionalpony equestrian Instagram account. Manu is full of personality- and so is his owner which makes this account a pleasure to follow. This account displays the equestrian lifestyle in its entirety – with laughs, oopsies, fun edits, shows, and much more.
Teamshowboss
This Instagram is filled with beautiful pictures of Showboss the Pinto and his owner, Silje. Located in Norway, Silje and Showboss light up the gram with their bright photos of beach scenes, jumping, and everyday equestrian life. Silje’s Gram shines a positive light from Norway on not only her life, but that of one with horses.
Cathrinedufour
If there’s one thing Cathrine knows, it is dressage! I love her account because she is a top competitor who is a brilliant rider and person. She is physically active and shows a few workouts, she is always smiling, and her Gram exudes positivity and happiness. She has a link in her bio for “dufour” products for anyone interested.

The talented and dedicated equine artist Julie Ferris has an Instagram you don’t want to miss! Julie’s account displays her artwork – and it is unbelievable!

She also has two of the cutest dogs I’ve ever seen that make delightful appearances on her lovely Instagram.
Rodeocowgirl2809
Rodeocowgirl is Carina Hinsche of Germany. Her pictures are incredible! I especially love the rearing horse pictures and the beach pictures she has. Carina portrays a fun and horse-loving persona.
