Horse Riding Holidays in July
July is pure adventure in full swing. In the Northern Hemisphere, summer is at its peak—long, sunlit days, warm breezes, and landscapes bursting with life. Think coastal canters, rolling green hills, and sun-drenched meadows.
Down south, winter brings crisp, clear skies, making deserts, mountains, and temperate regions perfect for invigorating rides. It’s the month for longer rides, golden sunsets, and that feeling of pure freedom only the saddle can give.
Top tips for travelling in July
- Pack sun protection. Sunscreen, sunglasses, and a light longsleeve sunshirt are essential for long days outdoors on horseback.
- Stay hydrated. Summer rides can be thirsty work—bring a refillable water bottle for your trail adventures.
- Plan early morning rides when possible. Catch the soft morning light and cooler air before the day warms.
- Capture the magic. Golden-hour light in July is perfect for photos—don’t forget your camera or phone.
