History

There has always been a tradition of hunting on foot in Co Cavan. The last mounted packs were private packs of the Maxwell family of Farnham Estate and Mr Humphries of Ballyhaise, where hunting was by invitation, but they were disbanded over 100 years ago. In 1999, the Drumlin Harriers, based in Cavan, were formed as a mounted farmers’ pack to serve people from all walks of life and especially children.
