Horse riding holidays are fun for all the family as they encourage children to enjoy the great outdoors, explore the countryside as well as getting time to spend with horses which is a past time very popular with many children. Whilst some children who live in rural areas may already have an equestrian hobby the majority of those children who live in cities may never of met a horse, having only seen them on TV and in movies.
Riding Holiday Activities
If it's an activity holiday that the whole family can enjoy, particularly for the younger children, then a horse riding holiday is perfect for you. As not only do you get to enjoy a passion for horse riding on a daily basis whilst making sure your children benefit from the fresh country air but most riding holiday centres offer a range of other outdoor and sometimes indoor activities if the weather is not so good.
Common activities offered by horse riding holiday stables are things such as mountain biking, sight-seeing, quad biking as well as some more creative activities such as pot making, weaving classes, basket making and painting. So you see, there is much more to riding holidays than perhaps you first thought, you may come home with more than good memories as you may have learnt some new artistic and creative skills as well as gained some new hobbies.
Enjoying the Great Outdoors
The fact that time spent on these kinds of holiday is predominantly spent outdoors means that you get to see and explore the picturesque countryside on horse-back, plus some centres may offer guides who can tell you a bit about the local history as well as the geological structure of the surrounding landscape. It is this level of educational experience which can make a riding break into a truly memorable adventure into the countryside and may lead to you returning on a regular basis.
As well as learning about the local area you will enjoy spotting a variety of wildlife as you ride along the designated tracks and bridleways. Commonly seen animals are things such like squirrels, birds, rabbits and foxes amongst others.
Quality Family Time
The added benefit of a horse-back holiday is that you will be able to keep a close eye on your children whilst spending quality time with them, watching them as they explore the natural world. The benefit of giving your kids a holiday to remember which appeals to their interests whilst making sure they get lots of fresh air away from computer consoles is clear to see.
