|---|---|
What better way to enjoy the beauty of the Lakeland
countryside and its changing seasons than to get someone else to do
the walking for you! We can arrange rides to suit you from a one hour
trek or lesson to a weekend riding break.
Do I need to be an experienced rider?We cater for both total beginners and experienced riders and have a choice of over 35 well mannered and willing horses and ponies of all shapes, sizes and temperaments - there is a horse to suit everyone. They include native breeds and warm bloods and are anything from steady to forward going depending on your experience and preference. The rides (depending on the weather, ground conditions and the ability of the rider) go along bridleways and quiet country lanes across open fells and through forests. Our numerous routes all offer glorious views of the surrounding fells. Enjoy the breathtaking scenery of the Ullswater and Matterdale Valleys. What about safety equipment?All treks are led by qualified, friendly escorts and approved riding hats are provided free of charge. Substantial footwear with a small heel is advised, riding boots are available, again, there is no charge. When it's cold, gloves are a must! |
