1. Bantry Pony Trekking
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 41 reviews
We have a large selection of horses and ponies to suit all ages and abilities. Beginners are especially welcome and our carefully selected Irish Cobs are sure to give you a safe pleasant introduction to riding and the Irish countryside. Groups are kept small and are fully escorted and supervised at all times. The private trails are around the farm and up to the summit of Mullaghmesha, where, 580m above sea level, the views are breathtaking and cover a vast area of the West Cork coastline, (on a clear day, and barely your mounts ears in a good Celtic mist). Rides commence with an assessment form, then fitting with helmets, body protectors and riding boots, provided by us, before you meet your horse and head for the hills! - well maybe not quite so fast!

This was a brilliant day out and our kids loved it. Staff were excellent and very friendly. Very facilitating towards young kids too and horses were all very docile. Highly recommended for a family day out.

Sit back and relax on a personal tour with your own, Failte Ireland qualified driver/guide. See the highlights as well as the fascinating gems off-the-beaten-track that the coach groups miss.
4. Bantry Bay Pony Trekking
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 22 reviews
Just 5 minutes from Bantry next to the main Cork road (N71). We ride on private tracks through ancient woodland climbing gently through the forest before emerging above the tree line, riding safe paths past heather, gorse and beautiful fuschia with breathtaking views down Bantry Bay. If you're not very experienced one of our guides will walk with you. Riding hats & body protectors provided.

Arranged a private trek for myself a friend and her three children aged 8,7 & 5, only myself had any experience riding. This was arranged quickly and easily and when we turned up everyone was treated in a friendly manner. The horses were all excellent and body protectors were provided fur everyone. The children were all lead and we did a trek through beautiful countryside over looking bantry bay. I rode Penney who was just fabulous , my friend rode Luna and the kids rode chesty,misty and Charlie who were all so well behaved.i couldn't recommend this centre highly enough and i hope to be back
