@gabbybella123 @gabbybella123 It depends - at the beginning you might start with pleasure rides which can be anything from 20-25km (approx. 12-16 miles) up to 40km (25 miles). The aim is to complete the distance you enter between 8kms/hr (5mph) minimum speed and 12km/h (8mph) maximum speed. That may sound a tall order but if you are used to going out for a hack for 3 or 4 hours which includes a fair bit of trotting then you are pretty nearly there. Chris

@BabaaNii It's a great way of getting out on your horse. Unless you get to the top it's "non-competitive" - just you and your horse having to complete your chosen distance between minimum and maximum times - so everyone is very friendly and there's plenty of helpful advice for the less experienced.
