Rideways, Off Road Horse Riding Course at Escrick Park.

Due to the frost, snow and heavy rain, Escrick Park have taken the decision to close the jumps on Rideways until the end of April. We are sorry for the disappointment this will cause to riders. We will release further updates on our website and social media and, if ground conditions improve, we will re-open sooner if possible.

Obstacle Information

Most obstacles do not exceed 1m and are constructed to a good solid standard. Obstacles may be avoided if so desired. However, they offer an enjoyable, unique equine experience for riders old and new or novice and experienced horses.

For those of you who prefer a less challenging jumping experience, we are now building new obstacles with a junior copy alongside of approx 350mm in height.

For non-riders

For those who maybe prefer their own two legs to four we suggest 'Temple Walk', a picturesque one-mile stroll where you may walk your dog (on a lead) while the horses tackle the rideways.

Out on the Rideways

Course Information:
Obstacles remain closed until further notice. Drainage issues caused due to high water table on the land have caused sticky conditions. We are sorry for the continued disappointment. Hacking open as normal. Fees £20 per rider for the day or £125 for annual.

Obstacle Information:
Dear Riders, we are sorry to advise that jumps are still closed following all the snow and rain over the weekend. We have never experienced conditions like this over all the years that Rideways has been operating and usually by March, the course if drying out enough for essential maintainance. Sadly this year things are very different. Thank you so much for your patience and we do hope that by April/May we will be in a better position. Hacking is open, but please take extra care on these tracks.

Other Information:
Open from 8.30 am to 4.00 pm 7 days a week. Do note our contact numbers on the notice board and read full instruction for your visit. Riding vouchers and maps available in the map box. Riders who have not paid will be asked to leave the course immediately and are liable for a £50 fine! CCTV in operation.

I had a lovely 2 hour hack around the Estate this morning, Beautiful day and that wind certainly blew the cobwebs away as well as my silk! Great place for my lad's rehab. Already looking forward to coming back full time! :)
