Loughrea Equestrian Centre is pleased to announce that commencing May 2010, it will be launching a carriage trail in conjunction with its regular Trail Riding Holidays.
Our Carriage holidays are ideal for everyone, regardless of their age, fitness or mobility. Our carriage is fully adapted to cater for Wheelchair users and is covered over with a canopy in the event of rain. Wheelchair accessible toilet facilities are also provided on the trail for everyone’s comfort.
Both Riders and the Carriage follow the same Trail, you have the choice of riding a horse or following alongside in the 10 seater Carriage. Whether horse riding or seated in the carriage, you will experience every aspect of the trail. Our 6 day Trails are 95% off road following the old green roads of the Burren, down the Atlantic Coast of Clare, from Ballyvaughan to Liscannor beach, past the Cliffs of Moher, then through the Burren National Park with its abundance of historical monuments and unique landscape. The holiday concludes with a trail through the Slieve Aughty Mountains, following forest tracks and along lakeshores. Wonderful scenery so don’t forget your camera. Along the trails you will be able to see across the sea to Connemara and the Aran Islands. Ancient monuments dot these trails; you will encounter a variety of megalithic tombs, ringforts, castles and penal mass rocks. The Burren has one of the densest concentrations of archeological sites in North West Europe. The Green roads of the Burren, originally built as a droving road to transport cattle from the highlands to the lowlands by ancient clans have been inaccessible to wheelchair users, but now we are delighted to announce that these trails, one of the hidden delights of Ireland, can now be enjoyed by everyone.
A truly unique way of experiencing Ireland. Experience the culture, history, scenery and fun of Irelands wonderful Trails. Locals will entertain you with stories and historical information during picnic breaks. This is the ideal holiday for families, groups or anyone wanting an activity holiday.
The package includes hotel accommodation, breakfast, evening meal and packed lunch. All transfers between your hotels will be taken care of. If you would like to join us on a trail but cannot commit to a full 6 days, we can offer shorter packages to suit your requirements.
Special Family and Group discounts available. For more details about our trails and holiday options, please check out our website www.horsetrailsireland.com
