Most of our rides have a weight restriction of 185 to 210 lbs
max.
Of course it also depends on the riding abilities of the individual rider
- so please only take this as a general guideline.
Most
working ranches, cattle drives,
pack trips,
covered wagon rides and
guest ranches in the USA will be able to
accommodate riders up to 250 lbs, but this is not the case for most
inn to inn riding tours, faster
paced wilderness rides or
horse drives.
In
Canada all rides are fine except the
Charlevoix and Gaspe Peninsula rides in Quebec.
All rides in
Ireland and
England will be OK as well, since
they are using very sturdy Irish Sporthorses or Welsh Cobbs.
Also all rides in
Iceland and
Norway are OK to book up to 250 lbs
due to the unique body structure of the Icelandic horses.
All rides in
Germany and most in
Austria are fine.
The following countries in general use a smaller or more fragile horse
breed and will (as a general rule) not accept any riders over 210 lbs -
exceptions are listed on the left side:
Europe
Bulgaria
France
Greece
Hungary
Italy

Some of our trips have one or two horses available that can carry a
heavier rider, but they may not always be available. |
