Teens Western Adventure Day

Product Description

Take part in this fantastic Western Adventure Day, as you learn about the western-style of riding & help to prepare the horses for a day trailing the New Forest. Your working day starts at 9am with a coffee, a bacon sarny & an introduction by the Trail Leaders. The first task of the day is grooming & getting to know your horse. Youll be shown how to fit headcollars & how to lead & rack up on the yard. Finish by tacking up your horse before stopping for a quick coffee break. After coffee its time to mosey down to one of the arenas for a western riding lesson, where youll be taught the basics of western-style. Lunchtime is for horses & riders alike, so after ensuring that your mount has hay & water, its time to sit down to a sizzling Chicken & Steak BBQ lunch. After lunch set off to ride into the wide blue yonder on a Western Trail into the new Forest. Beginners are welcome on all western rides since only gentle paces are used. The trail takes you across the plains where you will ride amongst the free roaming wild forest ponies, foals & cattle, & then on into several of the forest enclosures where, with a bit of luck, you may catch a glimpse of the Forest Deer or one of the other inhabitants of the woods. Finally the day winds up back at the ranch where the horses need untacking & a good rub down before hay & feeds. That done, you get the chance to sit down with plenty of hot coffee & a doughnut or you can help turn the horses back out into their fields for a good roll & a play before they settle down to munch the grass.
