Join our happy Shetland pony trekking adventure

by Shetland Pony Club | May 25, 2021

This week you can join our happy Shetland pony trekking adventure as our Pony Share Members ride to the bluebell woods.

Shetland pony trekking

Our Pony Share Members are so happy to be out exploring with their ponies, with the ground now much softer and the birds singing, it’s the perfect day for a pony adventure.

Fairy woodland

The children all dismount to go over the rickety bridge to the woods – maybe there’s a troll underneath it? Then it’s back in the saddle to ride between the bluebells on the paths through the woodland. What a lovely scent the bluebells have! Perhaps there are some fairies in the woodland too – let’s try and find them.

What a happy Shetland pony trekking adventure!
