Additional Event Information
If you love to hack and enjoy spending quality time with your horse in the outdoors, join us for the BHS Forest of Dean Pleasure Ride.
There are long, medium and short route options of either 10 miles, 6 miles or 3 miles respectively. This is a walk and trot ride and the short route is perfect for lead rein. Everyone welcome!
By kind permission of Forestry England, this ride will take place in the ancient and beautiful Forest of Dean in the Wye Valley. The forest has changed may times over the centuries. In medieval times it was a royal hunting forest, before becoming a source of timber for the navy's Tudor warships. By 1938 it was designated as the first National Forest Park. Today the forest is still a working forest, producing sustainable timber for the UK market.
Any profit from this ride will go towards the BHS Ride Out UK Fund which preserves and creates off-road routes for equestrians across the UK. Your support will help horses and riders to have safe places to ride.
