Riding at Hartpury

Whether you’re a beginner or developing as an equine athlete, there are lots of opportunities for riding at Hartpury.

You don’t have to study Equine to ride at Hartpury. There are plenty of opportunities on campus for our students to experience the joy of horse riding.

 

Riding at Hartpury is subject to an assessment. If you're not already at the required level, don't worry. We've teamed up with a local riding school to provide subsidised lessons and help you achieve the necessary skill level.
