Shetland Ponies Wild Swimming

See Availability Update Below

This week we have taken the Shetland Ponies Wild Swimming at the river with the children on our summer camp days.

Special summer pony camp days

You can only get to enjoy wild swimming with the ponies on some of our special summer pony camp days.  We join the first lucky children of the season to enjoy this magical pony paddling experience.

First, the ponies went into the water with their helpers to get used to the cool waters.

Then the children got on and enjoyed an amazing time, wild swimming with their ponies.  You can only get to enjoy wild swimming with the ponies on some of our special summer pony camp days.

Best day of my life!

Was it fun?  “YES – it’s been the best day of my life!” said one of our happy riders.

The cows wanted to come and join in the fun too! Take a look at what they saw by watching the video: Shetland Ponies Wild Swimming
