Aillecross Equestrian Centre

In the heart of a contrasted landscape, where the mountains meet the sea, and green land surrounds the lakes, you will find one of Ireland's most unusual regions. Connemara, a land both wild and tame. The Connemara Trail is not just for riders, but for anyone who enjoys other activities in a peaceful Irish atmosphere. Connemara a vast region where you will meet a man with a very original personality, Willie Leahy; the very incarnation of an lrish horseman, who will be your guide during a week or more of trekking through the Gaelic West. For beginners and experienced riders alike, Willie Leahy provides the suitable horse and leads you to the discovery of the Connemara / Coast Trails. Six days or more of exciting and relaxing holidays, where after you spending four to six hours a day on horseback, you are accommodated in luxurious hotels or guesthouses while the horses graze freely in a nearby field. Guided by this friendly centaure, you cross the wild green hills, the rust coloured bogs. Among castle and manor ruins and along mountain paths, there is a picnic stop. Your luggage is brought by car from accommodation to accommodation, while the catering problems are taken care of by the Connemara Trail's dynamic team. The trails are not confined to horse lovers. On demand, many activities such as river fishing and deep-sea fishing, golf, cycling, mountain climbing or walking the little deserted roads, swimming etc. can be organised. Non-riders will meet their riding partners every evening to share their daily experience in the hotel pub.
