Horse Riding Holidays in May
May is the month that feels like a deep, contented sigh—soft sunlight, mild days, and landscapes blooming or glowing depending on where in the world your wanderlust takes you. In the Northern Hemisphere, spring is hitting her stride: wildflowers bursting, meadows humming, and long daylight hours begging for exploration.
Meanwhile, the Southern Hemisphere drapes itself in rich autumn hues—burnt oranges, warm ambers, and cool, crisp air that makes every canter feel invigorating. It’s a time when horses are feeling their best, trails are peaceful, and the world feels fresh and full of possibility.
Top Tips
- Bring a light rain jacket—just in case. Spring and autumn sprinkles are quick and refreshing.
- Quick-dry riding clothes are always a win. Between dew-kissed mornings and sunny afternoons, breathable fabrics keep you feeling fresh.
- Check for local public holidays. Many countries have May celebrations that can affect travel or spark lively cultural experiences.
- Pack a cosy layer for evenings.
