horse riding in scotland
Pony trekking and horse riding centres can be found throughout the nearby Trossachs & Breadalbane, catering for riders at all levels.
The terrain in this part of Scotland offers everything from the easiest of gentle rides for the complete novice to the more demanding trek's over some of the moors and mountain slopes. It is often said that the best way to enjoy the scenery is on foot - many who have tried pony trekking in Scotland would disagree!
The landscapes through which riders can trek varies considerably throughout the area. The quiet country lanes and rolling hills in the lower lying areas of Stirling, Strathallan, Falkirk and Clackmannanshire are good for less experienced riders, as are the shady trails through the Carron Valley Reservoir. The hilly treks in the Ochils and Campsie Fells, with the superb vistas of the surrounding countryside, should be tackled by the more experienced.
The excellent Rednock Farm Trekking Centre is between Thornhill and Port of Menteith on the road from Stirling to Aberfoyle and is also only 10 minutes by car from the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park Gateway town of Callander and 30 minutes from Stirling.
Their outstanding ponies and horses are experienced in all terrains and all categories of riders. They are good natured and adaptable and will happily cope with all abilities from the total novice to the very experienced rider.
Although it is not a riding school, instruction on riding technique and basic skills is provided.
