About the Hunt
About the Hunt
The Camargo Hunt is one of the oldest hunts in North America. We pursue the thrill of the chase along with great social and equestrian activities. We ride in picturesque areas of southwestern Ohio and northern to central Kentucky. The country varies from trails in wooded areas to open fields to the hills of middle Kentucky.
