  Why Ireland

  Ever wondered what it would be like to discover a land filled with awe-inspiring vistas, crashing coastlines and breathtaking mountain trails – all astride a saddle? Just imagine feeling the cool ocean spray as you gallop across deserted sandy beaches; or taking in the sight of stunning rural landscapes while your trusty steed guides you off the beaten track. Even in today's fast-moving world, there is still a place where all this is possible, as the land of the horse awaits you.

  On this little island on the northwest tip of Europe, folklore and literature are peppered with references to Ireland's equestrian friend, the horse. Here, you'll discover the legend of the great warrior Oisín, who disappears beneath the waves astride a beautiful white horse to be with his one true love, Niamh, in Tír na nÓg (the Land of Eternal Youth); and the story of the great Cúchulain and his mighty chariot horses Grey Macha and Black Seanglan.
