What does the activity include?
Riders are asked to arrive 30 mins before the trail leaves so that they can be kitted up with hats, be given a safety briefing and a basic idea of the techniques of horse riding before mounting up and riding off into the wild blue yonder. Our trails take you to the New Forest across open heathland and through enclosures where you often see the Forest inhabitants including wild ponies and deer. On return a BBQ is cooked around a campfire and soft drinks, tea and coffee are included. Vegetarians can be catered for if notified in advance.
