Let us arrange a magnificent and exciting trail ride for you.... Typically we can plan a direct route (back to base trail ride) and box the horses to the start point of your trek, or alternatively, we can run circular routes for the riding centre here at Bigland Hall.. All the trail ride routes can encompass as many days riding as you require and terrain to suit your needs and abilities.

Please note - Trail rides need to be precicely planned so if you are interested please contact Mike Myers on the above number and he will be pleased to arrange the trekking experience of a lifetime for you.


Circular Trail Ride.....

Normally we will set of from the riding centre and plan a route to suit you or your parties needs. Typically we would ride into the heart of the Lake District taking in areas such as Grisedale Forrest, Coniston Valley and the Langdales.

For nightly stop overs we can either pre arrange accommodation/luggage transportation ahead for you, or we can drive out and bring you back to your prebooked accommodation nearby.

We of course also pre arrange overnight accommodation for your trusted steed.



Direct route Trail Ride.....

Typically for a 3 day direct route trail ride we would box the horses to the start point, and your journey of discovery starts there. In the past we have started some 40 miles away near to Penrith in the North Eastern Lakes and an exciting route has been calculated for the way back.
