Tiny Tots Pony Trekking 

 

If you are looking for children's pony trekking in Cambridge, we offer children's private hand-led pony treks, on quiet countryside tracks, available for children aged 2-8 years old.

 

Small children can find the large, busy riding school environment quite overwhelming, many riding schools do not take children until they are 5 years old, and some children don't feel excited about going round a ménage in circles, but here we can take little ones from 2 years old to 8 years old and we go out pony trekking instead.

 

Although we are a licensed riding establishment, we are not a riding school and not open to the public, these are strictly by arranged appointment only.

We offer an interactive pony session with quiet pony trekking out around open countryside or through the village on our gentle lead rein ponies.

​

Firstly your child will meet their pony, say hello and give them a treat to eat, you can even have a brush of them if you request to do so. Then we will get your little one up on the pony and go!

 

You walk out with us too, while we take one or two ponies out for a lovely walk in the countryside. We go for a quiet walk, look for wildlife and sing little songs, and learn about the ponies. As we go on our magical ride, we may see little Fairy Gardens along the way and go to the Wishing Tree and all make a wish.

 

The slightly older ones can learn to turn and stop the pony, and other interesting things. You'll get plenty of opportunities to take some lovely photos of the pony trek.

 

If you are experienced with horses, you can lead one of the ponies yourself, which is lovely for the child if Mummy, Daddy or even Granny is involved!

 

Maximum of three children and three ponies.

​

Booking ahead is essential. We have some availability on Saturdays and Sundays and lighter evenings from 3.34pm - 4.45pm.

Pony riding is a HIGH RISK sport, and whilst our ponies are beautifully quiet, they can still move suddenly or unpredictably and there is a risk that your child may fall from height. You need to consider carefully whether you want to accept this risk by taking up horse riding for your little one.
