Cannock Chase Horse Trekking

Kids can get in touch with nature by trotting, cantering and galloping around the Staffordshire countryside with Cannock Chase Horse Trekking.

It doesn't matter if they haven't ridden before as a team of friendly professionals are ready to show them the ‘ropes’. Beginners will be fully trained up, while experienced riders will have chances to break off with one of the guides for a faster paced ramble before rejoining the group. The team make sure no man - or pony for that matter - is left behind!

There are a number of experiences to choose from such as the half hour paddock rides for kids age 4 and up, as well as treks for kids from age 7. There’s an after school kid’s club and a one-hour introductory trek which would be perfect for little beginners. Then if you fancy something a little more advanced, mixed ability, 2-hour or even all day treks are offered. It’s recommended to book one week in advance, or two during school holidays.

• All abilities riding
