Horse Riding
Whether it’s a leisurely jaunting-car ride, a gallop on the sands or through the countryside, or a trip to the races you’ll find it in Ireland.
No trip to Killarney is complete without a jaunting car ride whether its to Muckross House & Gardens or to view the wonders of the Gap of Dunloe it is an experience not to be missed.
For the more active why not go pony-trekking? What a better way to take in the sites then to amble your way along the sandy beaches and Dunes or through forests and woodland.
From Punchestown to the Curragh the thrill-seekers will find the best in Irish horseracing. Select Hotels of Ireland are proud to sponsor Cheltenham winner Brian O Connell. Brian has been riding professionally for the past 6 years and won the much coveted Grade 2 Bumper in Navan in February 2009 before heading to Cheltenham and winning the Bumper in March 2009. He has become an integral part of Phillip Fenton’s team and at just 22 years of age, the young jockey is already making a name for himself in the horse racing circuit, lying third in the amateurs’ table with 14 victories.
So whether it’s a trip to the races or the experience of taking in the sites by horseback let Select Hotels of Ireland help you to plan the trip of a lifetime!
