Blidworth Woods Afternoon Confidence Ride

Difficulty: 2/10 🟢

Can't make an early morning? We've got you covered 🌳🐴

Our beautiful Blidworth Woods confidence ride is now available as an afternoon session — same magical woodland, same soft sandy tracks, same wonderfully calm and supportive atmosphere — just a little later in the day!

Jess and Quinn will take a small group of just 4 riders into the most beautiful ancient woodland in Nottinghamshire — and from the moment you set off something just shifts. The trees close in around you in the best possible way. The sandy tracks are soft and quiet underfoot. Your horse's ears come forward. Their back relaxes. And before you know it you're both just completely in the moment 💚

Walk only. Flat terrain throughout. No roads. No gates. No traffic. Nothing to worry about. Just the woods, your horse and a small group of like minded riders who just get it 🌿

Perfect for:
✔ Nervous riders
✔ Novice riders
✔ Those returning to hacking
✔ Horses needing a steady confidence-building outing
✔ Riders who prefer a later start 😊
