International Endurance Ride

An International Endurance Ride is a competitive long-distance horse event, typically covering 80 to 100 miles, testing the stamina and fitness of both horse and rider. Held over one or more days, participants must complete the course within a set time while adhering to veterinary checks that ensure the horse’s health and well-being. These rides emphasize horse management, navigation, and teamwork, with success based on completion and adherence to safety standards rather than speed alone. It’s a sport that celebrates the enduring partnership between horse and rider, promoting responsible riding and animal care.
