Ride the Radnorshire Hills

October 1st - 4th (3 days riding)

 
We have been asked by  fellow Parelli students to put on  3 days in October in the Radnorshire Hills returning to the Brandy House each night in the the spirit of putting some miles on the clock!  So this is what we have done and are asking if there is anyone else out there interested in joining either group.

The rides will be guided by Medina or Karen (both parelli students) and the average time in the saddle will be around six hours daily with a break for lunch. The terrain is hilly, wild but not rugged so it will be demanding but not 'fast'.  (we ride our horses barefoot and boot them if we are using stony tracks).   We will plan the riding according to the group - there are some routes with shortcuts home and we can vary the routes as we go according to how the horses are going, how the humans are feeling and what the weather is doing!

If you are interested in joining us then you and your horse need to be comfortable riding freestyle in open spaces in walk, trot and canter.  Please be aware that there is no instruction available and we are simply offering a guiding service and an opportunity to ride with like minded folks!

There will be a minimum of 3 of you and a maximum of 6 and the cost varies depending on numbers.

Oct - from £456 - £629 inclusive of 3 days riding and 4 nights full board accommodation.
