During the Summer holidays Wicklow Equestrian Centre hold a number of Summer Pony camps. These camps offer young people the opportunity to spend time with and around horses and ponies learning how to care for and ride ponies.
The Program Pony camp normally runs from Tuesdays to Fridays from 9.30 am to 1pm daily. Each day the campers will recieve 1 horse riding lesson, 1 stable management lecture and will have to care for their ponies including feeding , mucking out, grooming etc.
The cost for the camp is €140. Each camp is divided into levels of ability where we try to keep those of a similar standard together. We recommend that each child brings suitable cloathing and a snack to keep them going .

The Glendalough House grounds offer some of the most beautiful scenery and spectacular views in the Garden of Ireland. To take advantage of these settings and to add to the sense of occasion that a trek at Glendalough House Equestrian affords, the Picnic Trek Experience has been put together to give riders time to relax and unwind in the idyllic surroundings whilst enjoying our ‘Brown Bag Lunch’ comprising a choice menu of sandwiches, water, fruit and a desert.
The Picnic Trek Experience can be booked at the same time as a trek or can be ordered at a later date, but needs a minimum of 24 hours prior notice to arrange and is supplementary to any trek.
