Learn the ins and outs of fox hunting with the Glenmore Hunt. This clinic is a great way to introduce your horse to being ridden in a group situation simulating the hunt as well as an introduction to hounds. Suitable for adult and junior riders who can walk, trot and canter their horse with control, ideally in a group setting. This is the place to start for people who want to learn the basics of foxhunting. It is also a very good place to introduce a horse to the sights, sounds and dynamics of foxhunting.

If you have never ridden to hounds before, those antique hunt prints that have adorned walls throughout history are about to take on a whole new meaning. For most people, a brisk morning, fresh horses, and baying hounds are indeed a life changing experience. We hope it will be for you. Stand forewarned, however, no matter what your riding discipline, it can be addictive!
