Equestrian Services in Powys

Powys is the largest county in Wales and one of the least populated, with mountains, moorland and forests that make it one of the best areas in the UK for trekking.

Where to ride in Powys
Bannau Brycheiniog (the Brecon Beacons) around Brecon and Crickhowell offer open hill riding, and the Cambrian Mountains and the hills around Llandrindod Wells have long tracks and few people. Pony trekking has a long history in mid Wales, and many centres welcome beginners as well as experienced riders.

Riding schools, livery and lessons in Powys
Our Powys directory lists riding schools, livery yards, trainers and stables in places such as Brecon, Llandrindod Wells, Crickhowell, Llanidloes and Pennant. 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.
