3 day trail only running NPT weeks.

As the name suggests, the ride is a three day trail, beginning and ending at Cwmfforest - our base in the Black Mountains. It travels along the northern escarpment of the Black Mountains to Hay-on-Wye, where riders stay the second evening.

Wednesday: We ride over Rhiw Trumau down the old coach road to the Red Lion Inn at Llanbedr.  We then follow a valley path in the shadow of sugarloaf mountain to Forest Coal Pit, then ride across Bryn Arw finishing day at the Skirrid Inn the oldest pub in Wales, near Abergavenny.

Thursday: We ride up Hatteral Ridge on 6th Century King Offa’s Dyke path, where to the right glorious views of England are afforded and to the left the vastness of Wales and the Black Mountains can be seen. We drop down into Herefordshire to visit the Goat Company farm where there is the chance to buy Angora goat clothing. Then ride up on to Black Hill before descending Hay Bluff and Cusop Dingle toward a homely nights stay at The Kilverts Hotel in Hay on Wye.

 Friday: Friday's route in the Black Mountains means a steep descent into the Wye Valley where we picnic or visit the Three Horseshoes before a fast ride back to Cwmfforest to complete the tour - the gallop here is truly sensational!

 


Our trails take us along commons where good canters can be had at all times of the year.


We can travel along the valley sides as well us straight up over the mountain on our sure-footed cob.


We gain great views on this ride from Hay Bluff and plenty of culture at Llanthony Abbey.


Until... eventually we make it back home through the centre of the Black Mountains again.
