Vi drar tilbake...

Da var det bestemt. Billettene bestillt og ingen vei tilbake. Jeg sier som Tuva: Jeg elsker at vi skal tilbake!

Day 1: Arrive at Horse Holiday Farm by mid day to meet your horse and have a trial ride so you become acquainted with your mount for the next few days. Receive saddlebags and maps and overnight in the vicinity of the farm.

Day 2: To Streedagh: Ride from the farm along the shore to Dernish Island and Streedagh Beach where three ships of the Spanish Armada went aground in 1588 just a short distance off shore. Experience the gallop of your life on the wonderful long golden sandy beach of Streedagh. Overnight near Streedagh.

Day 3: With Ben Bulben on your left and the Atlantic on your right ride along old cart tracks, bogland paths and small country roads to Trawbawn ( in English White Sands). About 7km off shore you can see Inishmurray Island - it has a monastic settlement founded around 500 A.D. You will enjoy an unforgettable view from Cullumore cliffs over Sligo Bay as far as the coastline of Co. Mayo. Follow the way to your next overnight stop at a family guesthouse.

Day 4: To Drumcliffe: Head for Ardtarmon Strand passing the lovely Ardtarmon Castle on the way to Lissadell Beach. You will pass by the historical Lissadell House family home of Countess Constance Markievicz and extolled in poetry by W.B.Yeats.
" the light of evening , Lissadell,
Great windows open to the south"
Leaving Lissadell Beach at Carney, riding through forest, you are now heading for the foot of Ben Bulben from where you will have fantastic views over Sligo Bay arriving at Drumcliffe to overnight at a modern guesthouse. Do take the time to visit Drumcliffe Churchyard nearby to visit Yeat's grave and read his epitaph..

Day 5: You can improve your riding skills on our cross-country Course of 10 miles and over 50 obstacles set on 400 acres.



Og jeg vet det kommer til å bli nok en opplevelse vi sent kommer til å glemme...
