Our Extended Half Day Pony Walking Experience boasts a 4/ 4.5 hour route (approx 5 miles) through the beautiful Dorset countryside. When you arrive you will meet the other members of your group and most importantly the ponies Evie and Bob. Start by learning how to pack your supplies for the day, including your picnic which you will be treated to after your walk. You will take turns guiding the ponies along an ancient drovers route into an area of outstanding beauty. Throughout the day you will learn about the local area and the history of the horses and how they were adopted from the RSPCA. Spending time with animals is known to be soothing and this will be no different as you take in your surroundings with your new equine friend. After you have returned to the stables you will help untack Evie and Bob to release them back into their fields.
