turlough equestrian centre

Ireland is known internationally for its equestrian tradition and love of horses. Wherever the visitor goes, there are opportunities to share in this love of riding, and indeed, in a country like Mayo, there are few better ways to explore than on horse or pony. To fully discover hidden trails, smooth beaches and uneven terrain, while taking full advantage of fresh air, the horse is your ideal method of transport. There are plenty of horses/ponies for hire so you can accompany a group on a pony trekking expedition and trot at a relaxed pace through Mayo's countryside. If you like mountain views, but not the effort involved in climbing them, you can let a horse take you there. Guides are available to give advice and point out the areas of local interest.
