The Group Riding Experience is a perfect introduction to horse riding for beginners of all ages. Participants will start in the arena receiving instruction on mounting, saddle position, steering, walking, and trotting. Each rider receives guidance tailored to their ability, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience. After mastering the basics, the group will enjoy a scenic walk along the country lane, taking in the views of the surrounding countryside and mountains. This experience is ideal for families wishing to ride together, beginners exploring riding for the first time, and novice riders looking for a relaxed, structured lesson.
The lesson accommodates both children and adults, with younger children able to ride as part of a family group. Riding hats and boots are provided, and instructors ensure all participants feel comfortable and confident. Safety, horse welfare, and rider enjoyment are top priorities. If the group has only one rider, the session reverts to a private lesson. Larger groups are welcome by arrangement. This experience offers a fun, social, and educational introduction to riding, leaving participants with new skills, confidence, and lasting memories.

I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. In my view, some of the instruction is very poor and there is a ridiculous nanny culture at the club. They also act like they are the only people in the country who know how to ski. After what we both thought were some terrible ski lessons (the odd one was ok at best) from this crowd caused my partner to lose confidence, I brought her up for one of their practice sessions which we were both eligible for. We were minding our own business, following the signposted rules and were told after 2 minutes I am not allowed to show her anything. I offered to go up to one of the baby slopes but that wasn't deemed acceptable either. Ok that's fine if that is your rule so I didn't continue and handed back my boots and skis. Won't give me a refund (only asking for myself), absolutely pathetic, I did all of a half a run and have no personal need for your carpet. They also weren't keen to accept feedback that some of their instructors are not up to scratch, which we also overheard other people in one of the classes say to each other by the way. My 2 cents, if you want to deal with arrogant busybodies who will teach you what to me is reminiscent of ski technique from decades past, this is the place for you. We saw other people struggling with the lessons and looking dejected due to such poor feedback. I felt bad for them and hoped they weren't permanently put off of skiing. You may eventually learn to ski if you keep going up to this club but from an observer who can already ski, do yourself a favour if you are considering this place and book yourself an extra day on the real slopes and avoid this shower. It might end up cheaper, and I think you will learn more in a day or two on the real thing with competent technical alpine instructors than you will in weeks with this crowd of part-timers on their terrible carpet.

Went for practice with friends before going on Ski trip and loved it. Staf is very friendly and helpful. Definitely going back for more practice.

Perfect place to practice Skiing and Snowboarding in Ireland. Professional instructors take care of total beginners to safely and with enjoyment start from 0 as well as train advanced skiers to improve their performance🏂❤️⛷️My friends and myself learned a lot on the slopes of Kilternan.

Great Teachers and good opportunity to learn before hitting the slopes, even as a refresher. Guaranteed a great Craig during the lesson, super kind club! Thanks a lot!
