Puur Terschelling organises outdoor rides for advanced riders throughout the year. All routes run through dunes, the cranberry fields, the forest and over the North Sea beach. We always ride in small groups of maximum 6 guests. We alternate between walk, trot and canter (no racing gallop).
Experience
The required experience for these outdoor rides is at least 3 years of weekly lessons and a minimum age of 10 years. Should it become apparent during the ride that experience is insufficient, the rider will be collected. We do this for the safety of the rider and the group.
Reliable horses
Our Friesian and Shire riding horses are (almost) all born and bred on our Puur farm. They have been trained in a consistent and respectful manner. This makes them friendly, reliable riding horses; perfect for the beginning rider. For our guided outdoor rides we use the many riding routes of Staatsbosbeheer. Upon return you may help with unsaddling.
