When we think of Ireland, we think of the 37 proverbial shades of green: Emerald Isle, the shamrock, Dark Spring green, Hunter green, olive and Paris green and so on.

Ireland is also known as ‘the land of the horse’ and many outdoor activities are centered around horse riding: beach rides, post to post treks, cross-country routes or horse racing.

Horse riding can be a great way to explore the coastline at a leisurely pace, to admire views of local landmarks or to discover scenic trails that lead to rugged mountain vistas.

There are many organized tours available to help you discover different parts of Ireland on horseback – check here the list and choose the one that’s best for you!
