Horse Riding

Horses can be seen being ridden around the streets of Hayling during most hours of the day as it is very popular at present and always has been.

There are many stables around the Island in which privately owned horses are kept and ridden and also many fields that are owned solely for the use of horses.

Where to Ride.
Although many horse owners do ride their horses along the public highways of the Island, there is still many other areas of the Hayling where horse-riding can be enjoyed without the worry of cars and other road users.

West Beach
The sand flats of this part of the beach are ideal for a gallop and cooling a horses hoofs in the shallow waters. During the summer, the beach is usually occupied by horses when the tides are low. It should be noted that there is a local bye-law which dictates that horses must be kept off the beach during the summer months before the hours 8am and after 6pm.

The Hayling Coastal Path
The Coastal Path, that runs along the East Coast of Hayling is a dedicated bridal path as well as a foot/cycle path. The paths are separated by a pole fence so there is no need to be getting under each others toes here. The path runs all the way from the Hayling Bridge to the old Railway Station in West Town.
