In North Wales, Snowdonia is home to horse and pony trekking routes with views to remember. Alternatively, for those looking for a more fast-paced adventure, Llangollen’s extensive pastures provide plenty of opportunity for hacks filled with trotting, cantering and even a gallop if you’re feeling daring.

Anglesey is home to another popular riding route in the North, a particular favourite due to its mile-long stretch of beach that’s perfect for coastal galloping. For other beachy horse-riding adventures, the South coast is abundant with horse-friendly routes, including a stretch along the Heritage Coast, and is just a stone’s throw from the country’s capital.
