  • Layered riding clothing (including short- and long-sleeved tops, jumper, light jacket (possibly a windbreaker), rain jacket, warm jacket, hat, scarf for the evening)

  • Riding breeches

  •  good trainers/lightweight walking boots and mini chaps/riding socks, or whatever else you feel comfortable wearing whilst riding

  • Water bottle

  • Personal medication (if necessary)
