Depart from Lerwick, the capital of Shetland as you begin your trip to Burra, one of the smaller Shetland Islands; connected to the Mainland by a series of bridges and the island of Trondra.
En route there will be a photo stop at Meal Beach, one of the most beautiful beaches in Shetland. The beach is around 300 yards away from the car park along a boarded walkway.
Once you arrive at The Shetland Pony Experience you will be met by the friendly, local owners and separated into smaller groups. You will have the amazing opportunity to pet, brush and handle the ponies.
After a close-up encounter with the adorable little foals, you will be able to lead one of the ponies a few hundred yards down to a beautiful and secluded beach, and have your photo taken with these beautiful animals.
A positively authentic and fun Shetland experience not to be missed!
Please note: Wear comfortable sturdy hard-wearing and closed-toe shoes – no sandals, pumps, or crocs, there is loose gravel around stables, sawdust flooring.
