Has anyone been horse-riding at FW?
I really want to do this and mum said i could. But i want to know how fast you go and if you can take your own hats etc.......
Do they have different ability classes?
Thanx

This has been covered, at least in part, recently.

Hope this helps.#

You can take your own hat. The do not have different ability classes. Basically it is just a slow walk through the woods in single file. There is a very basic lesson at the start so no-one need know how to ride at all.

Hi Sammi
My DD Becky has doen this several times. She really enjoyed it, though its not like a riding lesson at home in the UK, as Jan says. Its a slow walk/trot through the woods at FW and all the horses are so well trained they really just follow each other. They have some lovely horses that Becky used to love to see each year.

You can take your own hat if you like and just need some boots/shoes that are suitable.

Hope you have a lovely time:)
