  • Learn to manoeuvre a carriage around an obstacle course
  • Get on the backstep and hold on as you race around corners and obstacles at speed

Learn the basic principles of carriage driving and finish the day with a speedy obstacle course. After a safety briefing you'll meet Charlie, Dini and the other resident characters at the stables. You'll learn the basic techniques of carriage driving and, using your new skills, negotiate a purpose-built obstacle course. After a short refreshment break, the experienced demo team will show you how much fun carriage driving can be. Have a go yourselves and get on the backstep of a carriage pulled by two of the famous Chariots ponies. Hold on tight as you race around corners and obstacles at speed! Your session ends with coffee, cakes and a rosette each to take home.
