The magical charm of the Emerald Isle makes Ireland an ideal destination for Horseback Riding. Few countries revere the horse as much as the Irish and horseback riding is deeply woven into the culture.
The rural countryside of Carlow (Barrow River Valley) with its stone walls, green fields and rolling hills provides an idyllic setting to explore trail riding in company with a good horse.
