The British Horse Society seeks courageous riders
The BHS's pioneering Horse Trek in Inner Mongolia proved
a huge success raising £9,000 for the BHS Welfare Department.
The 12 riders just returned from Inner Mongolia having enjoyed
an exhilarating ride across the Mongolian Grasslands.
Now the BHS is offering courageous riders another chance
to follow in the footsteps of the ancient Mongols and ride
across the Northern grasslands of Inner Mongolia from 29 June
– 8 July 2007.
Once horses are fed and watered at the end of a tiring day,
riders can feast on traditional Mongolian dishes and enjoy
the beauty of near daylight skies. Stunning scenery, Mongolian
horses and culture, steeped in history make for an unforgettable
experience.
Returning to Iceland again in August this year, 20 –
27 August 2006, this event is by its nature a Challenge and
not a holiday. Negotiating glacial rivers, riding along the
seashore and climbing mountainous trails make for a varied
and action packed event, requiring a good level of fitness
from participants.
This land of stunning scenery, fantastic horses and Icelandic
culture, steeped in history and Viking mystique will leave
a lasting impression. There are still a few places remaining
on this ride.
The Inca Challenge to Peru, 6 – 22 October 2006, is
not for the fainthearted as you explore, on horseback, ancient
Inca trails that wind along sacred valleys and over high,
mountain passes, through a region rich in natural wonders
and cultural heritage.
There is great potential for those in search of adventure
with the unique challenge being to ride the ancient Inca trails
that lead through mountains to Machu Picchu. If this is the
chance you have been waiting for don’t delay and sign
up today.
The Bedouin Challenge is an inspiring ride across the desert
landscape. The vastness of the landscape is immense as you
ride across sand dunes and open plains with breathtaking views
and beautiful sunsets, sleeping in Bedouin tents and dining
under the desert stars – this is an opportunity to escape
from the hustle and bustle of everyday life at home.
With plenty of time to prepare, this ride takes place 24
March – 1 April 2007.
To take part in any of these Challenges all you need to do
is pay a registration fee and raise a specified minimum amount
for BHS Welfare eight weeks before the event.
