Perthshire - a wide choice of riding disciplines

Perthshire’s countryside could have been created especially for horse and rider. Here in the green heart of Scotland is a magnificent varied landscape of rugged hills and mountains, tranquil glens, clear rushing burns and outstanding woodlands. A wonderful natural blend that provides some of the most enjoyable riding conditions in the UK.

Pony Trekking

There are opportunities for both the novice and more experienced rider wishing to travel at a leisurely pace and appreciate the peace and beauty of the landscape.

Riding Courses and Lessons

A variety of courses in the area give you the chance to develop interests and skills further. For more information please contact schools and centres directly.

A Spectator Sport

From the drama of horses tearing up the green at Britain’s most northerly racecourse to the excitement of top competition show jumping and the spectacle of Scotland's leading International Horse Trials; from lightening fast polo to agricultural shows where flighty Arabs and working Clydesdales compete for top honours, Perthshire has an amazing range of equestrian events.
