3 Hour Ride in the Rain

Even though we had a very rainy morning, our 3 hour ride with Freya on Cracker and Dillon was spectacular. We saw hundreds of deer, including many fawns and stags, and wound our way through Killarney park. It is a top memory of our trip to Killarney. 10/10 Highly recommend!!

Great Ride with a Great Stable Team.

We took the three hour ride and it had spectacular views and plenty of time in the park. My wife who had not great experiences on horses before had a great time. Horses were excellent. The team at Killarney Stables were so nice and very engaging. Annie was our lead and she was excellent fully engaged and fun to hang out with for the ride.

Best experience in Ireland

10000/10 recommend if you are in Killarney and are a horse lover. I saw ages and skill sets of all levels, and the guides were fantastic. I was able to book a longer more advanced ride and Emma was amazing when I asked if we could move up a bit more. Loved literally every minute of my ride. When I come back I’ll be riding again.
