Equestrian Services in Merseyside
Merseyside is mostly urban, but it has a lively riding community, and Aintree Racecourse, home of the Grand National, is one of the most famous racecourses in the world.
Where to ride in Merseyside
Riders on the Wirral can enjoy the Wirral Way, a former railway line with a bridleway along much of its length, and the coast around West Kirby and Hoylake. Sefton's coast and the countryside around St Helens and Prescot offer farm rides and lanes on the edge of the towns.
Riding schools, livery and lessons in Merseyside
Our Merseyside directory lists riding schools, livery yards, trainers and stables in places such as Liverpool, Wirral, Prescot, Saint Helens and Southport. Most riding schools offer group and private lessons for beginners and experienced riders, and many run pony days and holiday clubs for children. Prices vary between centres, so it is worth contacting a few to compare. Look for British Horse Society (BHS) or Association of British Riding Schools (ABRS) approval as a sign of good standards.
