Child Lessons
Tiny Trotters
Wicklow Equestrian Centre offers our very popular ‘tiny trotters’ classes, which combines learning to ride with learning to care and handle a pony. This type of class helps the child’s confidence and is a great way to introduce horse mad children to the sport of riding.
Tiny trotters is the most suitable riding class for all Beginner & Novice Children from 3 years of age
Group Horse Riding Lessons
For all children who can ride in walk and trot competently we offer group lessons for an hour, group lessons are available daily and we have classes to suit all levels.
Saddle Club
Wicklow Equestrian offers a unique opportunity for children aged 8 and up to come and stay for 3 hours on either Saturday or Sunday and get a feel of what horse care is like. We enjoy huge success with Saddle Club as we have seen our students progress in their riding as well as their horsemanship abilities and friendships. We hold special camps and activities throughout the year specifically for our Saddle Club.
