Are you the owner of Derbyshire Pony Trekking?
Welcome to Derbyshire Pony Trekking, the leading horse riding school and equestrian centre in Mansfield. At Derbyshire Pony Trekking, we believe that riding a horse is an opportunity to borrow freedom. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced rider, we offer the best off-road horse riding experience in the Midlands.
We pride ourselves on providing a personal touch to our treks, ensuring that our customers can relax and enjoy their ride at their own pace. We take out smaller groups, allowing for a more intimate and immersive experience. Safety is our top priority, and our well-trained trekking horses are suitable for riders of all skill levels.
One of the highlights of our centre is the variety of routes available for our treks. Unlike other places where horses may become familiar with the canter paths, our treks are always different, providing a unique and thrilling experience every time. You can trust that our safe trekking horses will take you on a memorable journey through the scenic countryside.
Derbyshire Pony Trekking has been recognised by TripAdvisor as a Certificate of Excellence/Hall of Fame/Travellers Choice winner for nine consecutive years, from 2015 to 2023. We are committed to going the extra mile and providing the highest level of service to our customers.
To book a trek, pre-booking is essential. You can text, email, or send a Facebook message to reserve your spot. Please provide us with information about your riding abilities and the preferred date(s) of your trek. For last-minute bookings on the same day, there is a surcharge of 2 per person.
At Derbyshire Pony Trekking, we cater to riders of all experience levels. Whether you prefer a gentle trek through woodland or an adrenaline-filled ride with thrilling canters, we can fulfil your horse riding dreams. If you want guidance and tuition during your trek, we offer a one-to-one instruction service. We believe in learning in a real horse-riding environment rather than just riding in a menage.
Our treks take you through the picturesque Derbyshire countryside, including Poulter Country Park, Scarcliffe Park Woods, and the charming villages of Whaley and Elmton. For longer treks, you may venture to Creswell Crags, a limestone gorge with fascinating caves from the Ice Age, and Shirebrook Woods, which offers serene bridlepaths lined with pine trees. From the viewpoint on top of Poulter Country Park, you can enjoy breathtaking views across four counties: Derbyshire, Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire, and Lincolnshire.
Derbyshire Pony Trekking is conveniently located near Sherwood Forest, The Peak District, and Centre Parcs. As you explore the trails, keep an eye out for the majestic buzzards and herons flying overhead, adding to the magic of your horse riding adventure. All the photos on our website showcase our horses and the areas we commonly trek, so what you see is what you can expect.
You can count on Derbyshire Pony Trekking for complete off-road riding, available all year round. We also cater to disabled and special needs customers, ensuring that everyone can enjoy the thrill of horse riding. With treks suitable for all levels of riders, we invite you to join us for an unforgettable equestrian experience.
