At the present time we regret it is not possible
for Peak Activities Ltd to book horse riding or
pony trekking facilities for 2008 and we regret
we are temporarily unable to handle any enquiries
regarding alternative horse riding or other pony
trekking possibilities in the Peak National Park.All our other outdoor pursuits are still running,
but clients specifically wanting riding only are
asked to contact Tourist Information Centres.

- as an elective instead of, say, caving.
- Our treks are sub-contracted with a popular independent
- local supplier in the Hope Valley and all treks needs to be
- pre-booked and paid for separately well in advance.
- If you haven't got your own local transport a centre minibus
- can be provided to and from the riding school which is located
- c.25 mins.drive from our base in Hathersage. A small charge
- may be made for this transfer service.
