Kent equestrian is your gateway to discovering the Pleasures of Horse Riding in the English County of Kent.

Local Kent Weather

The County of Kent is situated at the south eastern tip of England and is often called the 'Garden of England'; with its hop fields, oast houses, orchards, sumptuous gardens and captivating countryside.

Kent is the oldest place name in Britain and the county's history goes back to Roman times. Not surprising then that Kent has many historic towns, more than the average amount of intriguing castles, beautiful stately homes and historic attractions.

Kent has some of the most beautiful countryside you can ride through...

Kents Wye and Crundale Rides

This route will allow you to explore the downland and woodland on the North Downs to the east of the Stour Valley.

This circular ride lies to the east of the A28 between Canterbury and Ashford.

The riding routes comprise two short and four long loops which can be combined in any way to provide a long distance ride of up to 17 miles of approximately 4 and a quarter hours duration and within the capabilities of any horse which is ridden regularly.

The routes utilise bridleways, byways and sections of quiet minor roads. Just take special care on the narrow, twisting lanes.

Kents North Downs Way :

Designated as a National Trail, the North Downs Way runs for 140 miles from Farnham in Surrey to Dover in Kent. The route along the escarpment avoids exposed ridges but at the same time offers good views of the patchwork of fields and villages of the Weald.

The Way passes through large expanses of deciduous woodland. A section of the Wye and Crundale Rides coincides with the North Downs Way along the top of Wye Downs. Unlike the South Downs Way, the North Downs Way, as a whole, only has short sections suitable for bridleway use. The Way runs parallel or concurrent with the Pilgrims’ Way, an ancient trackway.

The Kent Downs - An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty

The riding routes are wholly within the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which forms part of a great arc of designated landscape stretching through East Hampshire, Surrey and Kent to the White Cliffs at Dover.

The chalk grasslands of the Wye and Crundale Downs, which comprise a ridge and characteristic dip slope and dry valleys, are of high ecological value.
