Llanthony Riding & Trekking, Hereford, England United Kingdom

Llanthony Riding and Trekking is based at Court Farm, next to Llanthony Priory, in the middle of the Brecon Beacons National Park in Wales. It offers a choice of riding experiences from simple trekking for novices, to hacking for the confident rider.

Whatever your standard – even if you have never been on a horse before – we can get you started.

Riding is one way to get out into the mountains and see much more – even if you’re only here for a short stay.

Quiet rides in groups accommodating complete beginners and less confident riders. Walking with some gentle trotting. Children (8 years and over) are most welcome!

Hacking

Smaller groups for experienced riders with trotting and cantering as the terrain allows.
