5.00My daughter wanted to give a billion stars! We both loved it, but she didn’t want to leave. Ray and Hannah were fantastic! We will probably be back again if my daughter has anything to do with it!
Like Riding Through Ireland With an Old Friend

5.00If you’re looking for a horseback riding experience in Ireland that feels personal, welcoming, and genuinely fun, I can’t recommend Wicklow Mountains Horse Trekking enough. Ray Fisher, the owner, led our ride himself and completely made the experience. We arrived about minutes late because we put the wrong location in GPS. We called to let him know and he was very understanding. Ray has a huge personality — incredibly gregarious, funny, and friendly. Within minutes he had learned everyone’s names and made the whole group feel comfortable. Between the nonstop jokes, storytelling, and colorful Irish commentary, there were moments you wondered whether you were on a horseback ride or sitting in a lively pub with old friends. Our group consisted of mostly novice riders, and Ray was patient and attentive the entire ride. I’m a very nervous rider, and he gave me extra guidance and reassurance while also playfully teasing me enough to keep me laughing instead of panicking. Somehow he managed to keep an eye on everyone while still making each person feel individually looked after. The scenery in the Wicklow Mountains was beautiful, but honestly, Ray’s personality is what made this experience unforgettable. We left smiling, laughing, and feeling proud of ourselves. Highly recommend for beginners, nervous riders, and anyone who wants a horseback ride that feels authentic, entertaining, and welcoming.

5.00Beautiful ride through the countryside and even a water feature 😀 Ray was the consummate Irish host with lots of Witty stories. The horses are friendly and well cared for and you can bring them treats. Lisa made sure that we all made it safely through the water 🐴 😉 Highly recommend

5.00Lovely spot to ride and with excellent guidance. We enjoyed different types of terrain in a short period of time. Felt safe despite most of us being not haven ridden before. The people who were experienced riders in our group were able to take separate trips to gallop while the rest of us walked. Highly recommend this trek for all levels of horseriding experience.
Really good experience....

5.00Really good experience. Ray is a character and Aimee (I hope I spelled that right) was a great guide and so calm. We were very impressed with the setup as well as the trail. Trekking through the lake was a highlight and we will definitely come back again.
