Horse Riding Weekend Breaks

Experience a whole weekend of spectacular and thrilling horseback trail-riding with Trans Wales Trails Horse Riding. This local Horse Riding club in Talgarth invites you to join them for an unforgettable adventure in the beautiful Brecon Beacons.

The event offers two full days of trail-riding on a Welsh Section D cob, with comfortable accommodation and delicious home-cooked meals in a traditional 17th Century Welsh Longhouse. Picture yourself relaxing by the log fires or on the sun-soaked terrace with a glass of wine after a day full of horse-riding and adventure. This weekend is the perfect opportunity to unwind and create lasting memories, whether you bring old friends or make new ones along the way.

Your journey begins on Friday evening with a warm welcome in the lounge, where you'll have a chance to explore the fields and meet the horses. Dinner will be served, featuring mouthwatering home-cooked meals made from fresh local ingredients, including a daily sourdough loaf. After dinner, feel free to relax by the fire, engage in some friendly competition with board games, or retire early with a good book.

Start your day on a high note with a hearty breakfast before meeting in the yard to learn about the exciting horse riding activities planned for the day. The club's friendly guides and yard assistants will be there to help you groom and tack up the horses. Spending time on the ground with your horse allows you to build a connection before embarking on your trail-riding adventure.

As you set out in the morning, prepare to be amazed by the picturesque woods, country lanes, old drover tracks, and bridle-paths that await you. Experience the thrill of long canters and gallops across nearby open commons, and if the weather permits, journey high up into the mountains. The Welsh cobs, well-known for their sure-footedness and ability to handle various terrains, guarantee an exciting ride.

Around midday, take a break and relish a delicious lunch at a cosy pub or friendly café, which is included in the price. After a leisurely rest, it's time to get back on the saddle for a few more hours of riding in the afternoon. Once back at the yard, you'll have the opportunity to untack, groom, and feed the horses while enjoying a cup of tea and homemade cake. With a total riding time of around four hours each day, you'll experience plenty of adventure without it being too strenuous.

In the evenings, enjoy relaxed dinners with your fellow riders, followed by walks to the nearby pub or entertaining games and activities at the accommodation. Feel free to unwind with a movie or dive into a captivating book from the club's selection. The evenings are perfect for sharing stories and bonding with your fellow riders.

On Sunday, a different route awaits, giving you the chance to explore new areas and possibly ride a different horse. Say goodbye to the weekend with one final ride before heading home, cherishing the memories of a fantastic horse riding adventure in the breathtaking Brecon Beacons. Don't let this opportunity pass you by – join Trans Wales Trails Horse Riding for an unforgettable weekend of horseback trail-riding in the heart of Wales.
