What to expect
You'll start with a brief groundwork session where the guide introduces you to your horse, covers essential handling, and gets you confident in the saddle. Then you head out along established trails winding through woodland, past streams, and across open hillsides. The pace is relaxed—this isn't a gallop, but a steady walk where you can take in the quiet surroundings. Most riders find the rhythm meditative; conversation is easy, and the guide points out the landscape as you go. Total time includes pre-ride preparation.
Good to know
Wear long trousers and closed shoes—no exceptions for safety. Avoid this if you have spinal issues, are pregnant, or have serious heart concerns. All fitness levels manage fine; the ride is about steady movement, not exertion. Bring water and sun protection.
