  Beschreibung

  We do pony trekking in the Scottish highlands,
  situated 9 mile from a lovely village called Gairloch. Gairloch is a very busy tourist holiday area with lots to offer see and do. We are 1hr 40 minutes from Inverness on the west cost of Scotland.
  
  We work with well mannered native ponies with stunning scenery all round.
  we offer riding for all ages and abilities, we have a variety of ponies from Shetlands, Exmoor, Welsh A, B, C and D, and Highlands. we do a lot of activities for children, half day and full day, we also have a lot of novice riders who need our assistance. We have been operating for over 20 years and meet some lovely families and visitors to this area, many return year after year. Having been given awards we are proud of how we operate.
  We are open 5 days a week during the season. Normally from 8.30am to 4.30pm but working with animals and the weather this can sometimes change. We are situated right by the beach so more time can be enjoyed here,
  We offer a friendly environment to stay and work in so feel at home and enjoy our hospitality.
  We can also offer exams and training and other equine certificates. the centre is also approved by the TRSS and ABRS. Please contact us for more information.
