Derbyshire Pony Trekking

With more of a personal touch, we trek at the customer’s pace whether it be fast or slow!  We take out smaller groups as it allows the customers to totally relax and enjoy their trek much more.  THE BEST OFF ROAD HORSE RIDING in the Midlands!! Very safe for beginners and a dream you wouldn’t believe for experienced riders!

We offer TREKKING ALL YEAR AROUND even in the SNOW!

There are so many different routes to ride. We don’t have to worry about a horse knowing where they usually canter or gallop because it’s a different ride every time with our safe trekking horses.

We care that little bit more and go that extra mile at Derbyshire Pony Trekking. Trip Advisor Certificate of Excellence winners for 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018.

We cater for all levels of experience. If your dream is to take a steady trek through picturesque woodland or to experience adrenalin filled fast pace treks with long canters and gallops, we can fulfil all Horse Rider’s dreams.

If you wish to have guidance and tuition along the trek then we offer a one to one instruction service. Why ride around a menage when you can learn in a real horse riding environment?

Experience treks through some of the most beautiful Derbyshire Countryside including Poulter Country Park, Scarcliffe Park Woods, and the quaint villages of Whaley and Elmton.

From the viewpoint on top of Poulter Country Park you can enjoy breath taking views across 4 counties of Derbyshire, Yorkshire,  Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire.  Views of the surrounding countryside to Sheffield, Newark,  Mansfield, Worksop and on a clear day over the Welbeck estate towards Lincoln Cathedral. We are within easy reach from Sherwood Forest, The Peak District & Center Parcs.

Look out for the Buzzards & Herons flying overhead whilst taking a trail ride around the Nature Reserve.
