I used to ride at a fairly advanced level but hadn't been on a horse in a few years. However, I was given the opportunity to do some phenomenal riding while on a two-hr trek at Killegar. The guides divided us into groups based on riding ability, so the more advanced riders were able to jump and enjoy a hearty... More

I really enjoyed my experience here. I took a tour with Wicklow Day tours and I will say that the staff here is great!. they work with expert or no experience riders and adjust to meet your level of riding. The lesson/ ride lasts about 2 hours and provides a beautiful view of the Irish Country side. a great experience... More

My husband bought me a two hour lesson/trek voucher, my circumstances changed and I had to change my lesson times twice, this was done without any fuss or bother and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. I had the most enjoyable lesson with Lorraine, the key with her is push not pressure, by the end of the lesson even... More

I bought one of the vouchers for a two hour booking (one hour trek, one hour lesson) at Killegar Stables. We left it a few weeks before we went to make the booking and there were no 2hr slots left but we were able to book two x one hour slots instead. So I went on Saturday for our one... More

I'd had minimal exposure to horses before visiting the stables, but the staff ensured I was matched with a suitable horse and I quickly forgot any nerves after the first couple of minutes. After that it was great fun - I've never felt so in touch with the great outdoors before! Myself & my friends are going to go again... More
