About Stonetrail Riding Club

Established in 2008 in Ravenstonedale, Stonetrail Riding Club has built a reputation as one of Cumbria's premier destinations for guided trail riding. Our British Horse Society approved facility combines professional expertise with stunning Eden Valley location.

Our Mission

We are dedicated to providing safe, memorable riding experiences that showcase the natural beauty of the Eden Valley, Yorkshire Dales and Lake District fringes. Our focus on quality over quantity ensures every guest receives personalized attention and appropriate route matching.

Our Story

Alison founded Stonetrail in 2007 with a vision to share the spectacular fell riding opportunities in Ravenstonedale. Since then, we have welcomed hundreds of riders annually, many returning year after year. Our involvement with the official Pennine Bridleway opening in 2012 highlighted our commitment to promoting responsible trail riding.
