This trip is perfect for those who are looking for fast-paced riding and a lot of jumps on fantastic horses. You don’t need to have ridden cross country previously, but you should be used to high-tempo riding in the outdoors. You will encounter real Irish charm and a lot of horses. People who are open, unpretentious and have a bit of courage will love this location with its genuine expertise built up over many years.
You will either stay at a charming B&B in the village, 15 minutes from the equestrian centre and 45 minutes fom the city Galway. In the morning you will enjoy a real Irish breakfast and you will then be driven to the farm where you will spend the day. There are several different pubs and restaurants to choose from in the evening.
Or if you prefer full board, you´ll choose to stay at a B&B and pub in Tynagh, 10 minutes from the equestrian centre, where you will have a nice and cosy pub dinner after a full days riding.
There is a large cross country course with up to one hundred jumps. There are also a number of smaller jumps that allow you to build your confidence during your stay.
A weekend includes approximately 8 hours of riding or you can stay a short week and enjoy approximately 15 hours of fantastic riding.
Whatever you choose you will have a great time.
From November to February you can combine cross country with hunting. The hounds follow a trail that has been laid and which leads you over the jumps. With everyone dressed up, it is just like riding in a painting. The hunt begins and ends at the pub. You must give this a try.
