Pack Ponies - Walking Dorset, Camping Wild.
Non-ridden horse experiences
Our Camps
All of our pitches are private and semi wild; there are compost loos, a forest shower and maybe a deer or two...
Wild Camping
This option is for more adventurous campers, people who want to hike and pitch somewhere peaceful. You bring your sleeping bag, roll mat & food, we provide the rest. Our sites all have compost loos and a forest shower.

Leave No Trace
Beauty & Integrity
We work closely with our landowners to develop wild camp sites - some we use more than others, but all operate on a leave no trace basis. Our landowners trust us to use the woodlands respectfully and we ask our clients to do the same. If you carry it in, you need to carry it out too - although that is where the ponies are happy to help! Most of our sites allow a camp fire, we provide wood and guidance on how to do this safely and responsibly
Landowner?
Are you interested in working with us?
We would love to hear from you!
​
We are very keen to hear from landowners who are interested in opening access to specified areas of their land in a sensitive and well managed way and diversifying their income. We ask little from you, just permission to put up tents, dig (and then fill in) a compost loo and access to water, even if it's not at the site itself. Ideally, you wouldn't mind us having small camp fires in fire pits. You have full control of when we'd be there and how often we use the site, we will always 'leave no trace'. We offer a service to clear areas for pitches, have an understanding of Woodland Management and can use our ponies to get into areas inaccessible to farm machinery.
