At a controlled and safe pace, follow hounds over stone walls and natural jumps on seasoned hunters through forests, rivers, and the Irish countryside. This 4-night itinerary includes combines 2 Days Cross Country Jumping/Hound Exercising Practice + 2 Days Drag Hunting on some of Ireland’s best horses! No animals are hunted, the hounds follow an artificial scent as you ride and jump along with them - the scent is pre-laid over a course of inviting jumps such as stone walls, logs, and solid XC fences. Expect lots of Irish hospitality & plenty of craic! (Craic = Good Times!) This holiday includes all the thrill & excitement that makes riding in Ireland famous.
Your host is Mr. Oliver Walsh, owner of Flowerhill Equestrian Centre, one of Ireland’s top equestrian facilities. Oliver accompanies the ride outs and provides words of encouragement and loads of fun along the way!
