Welcome to Endurance GB Wessex group in 2009, one of the largest of EGB's regional groups, comprising the counties of Wiltshire, Dorset & Somerset.
Endurance riding can be loosely defined as 'competitive long-distance riding' and endurance rides have been in existence in Britain since the early '70's. The sport has evolved over the years to a point where success at top level requires an almost scientific attention to detail in terms of feeding and training; however it still provides plenty of scope for the majority of riders whose ambition is simply to enjoy the sport to the best of their horse's ability.
For more information on Wessex’s activities contact a member of the a member of the Wessex Committee or check out the Rides and Events page of the website.
The aim of the Wessex Group is to provide information and support to members, or would-be members, whatever their aspirations.
