Trail Riding

Horseback trail rides around the world

A mobile trail ride is a riding holiday where you move on almost every day. Depending on the type of journey you prefer, you could spend your nights camping or in comfortable accommodation. A horseback trail ride is usually vehicle supported - if you prefer to have your belongings carried by pack horse, camel, yak etc then we describe these as Pack Trips. Some riding trails will start and end in a different place, whilst on others you will ride a circuit and return to your starting place. There are even horseback trails that cross country borders! Whether discovering vineyards in France, volcanic icefields in Iceland, beaches in South Africa, mountains in Peru or nomadic families in Mongolia, a horseback trail ride offers a different view and experience every day.
