ONE HOUR ‘ COM VALLEY’ TREK

This ride is suitable for everyone, even if you have never even sat on a horse. Our horses are shore footed and very good at their jobs.  The ride leaves the stables and heads into the stunning ‘Com’, an unspoiled glacial valley with unique and magical scenery.  This peaceful and serene ride will take you through the truly impressive and beautiful valley that lies right underneath the Mount Brandon range, you will cross clear rivers, see waterfalls and old peat bogs where the farmers used to cut turf for the fire.  The valley is still used by farmers to graze sheep, so a farmer on his tractor are likely to be the only others you’ll see, unless your lucky enough to spot the wild goats that live in the mountain range. On the way back to the stables the views change to the spectacular west coast, here you will see three peaks known as the Three Sisters, Ballydavid harbour and the cove leading into to the stunning beach of Muireach.

Times:  10.30am - 12pm -  2.30pm - 4pm.  Costs:  €40, half an hour children's ride €25.00

TWO HOUR ‘THREE SISTERS’ TREK

This exciting trek heads west towards the stunning Ballydavid village, you will trot through the quiet beautiful and colourful winding lanes which leads out onto the famous Slea Head drive.  On the way to the stunning beach of Feohanagh, you will take in remarkable views of the three peaks call the Three Sisters, and hack past farm lands and unspoilt countryside. We then take a good canter down on to the Slea Head before crossing the river at Feohanagh beach.  After the river you can enjoy another good canter or for those wanting to go a bit faster a gallop alongside the beach.  After a cool off and a paddle in the water we return home with a couple more canters whilst taking in views of the Mount Brandon range and the entrance to the Caoirm Valley.
