Lunga Riding Stables, the popular Horse Riding club located in Lochgilphead, is excited to promote their upcoming local Horse Riding event. This event is a must for all horse enthusiasts, showcasing the unique western riding experience that sets Lunga Riding Stables apart from the rest.
Situated on the breathtaking Lunga Estate, on the picturesque West Coast of Scotland, Lunga Riding Stables offers trail rides and lessons for individuals and groups of all ages over 6. Whether you're an experienced rider or just starting out, their experienced team ensures a safe and enjoyable ride for everyone.
For our younger horse lovers aged 4-6, Lunga Riding Stables provides a special taster of horse riding in a secure arena environment. It's the perfect way for them to dip their toes into the equestrian world and discover their love for these magnificent animals.
The riders at Lunga Riding Stables are treated to spectacular views of the ocean and can indulge in thrilling forest treks through hilly terrain. Experienced riders even have the opportunity to explore the open hills, taking their riding adventures to new heights.
Lunga Riding Stables is proud to offer both English and Western riding styles. English riding, rooted in European military traditions, is performed on English-trained horses using English tack. On the other hand, Western riding provides a relaxed and disciplined approach, originating from ranching and warfare traditions in the Americas. This style is ideal for beginners or those experienced in other disciplines, as the saddle provides more support and the horse is trained for smoother paces.
What sets Lunga Riding Stables apart is their exclusive offering of Western Riding in Scotland. With their dual-trained horses, including classic American Appaloosas and Quarter horses, riders can experience the thrill of Western riding like never before. Please note that there is an additional £10 fee for Western riding.
At Lunga Riding Stables, there is something for everyone. You can choose from one or two-hour trail rides, with the option to upgrade to Western riding for an enhanced experience. They also offer riding lessons in both English and Western styles, with lessons lasting three-quarters of an hour.
For those seeking a truly unique experience, Lunga Riding Stables presents their Pub Rides. Imagine enjoying an exhilarating horseback ride followed by a visit to a charming local pub.

For the little horse enthusiasts, Lunga Riding Stables hosts a weekly kids club called Saturday Club.
