Everything you need to know before riding a horse
Horseback riding is an activity for everyone. Riding schools and equestrian centers also organize rides for beginners and those getting on the saddle for the first time. Here, equestrian guides teach how to approach horses in the right way and conduct an introductory lesson on basic riding techniques.
You can learn to ride with western riding techniques or with the more elegant English riding. Beginners start with a walk gait, while more experienced riders can trot or gallop, always following the directions of equestrian guides.

Riding in the snow
Splendid experience in the midst of nature. It was rejuvenating, in the snow in the valley. The guys are very nice and the horses beautiful and calm. I recommend it to anyone who wants to spend an afternoon in a different and relaxing way.

Me and my...
My daughter and I got on well, we went out with the guide who took us through the vineyards. Quiet and docile horses for the first experience as a saddle baptism.

Easy ride with helpful staff
The staff was very kind when we arrived. They asked about our experience level with riding and gave us the instructions we needed. They also took some photos of our group and shared them with us. The horses definitely already knew their way on the trail, so riding was fairly easy. The trail we road on started as a dirt driveway and the rest was grassy. We rode a square pattern on flat ground around grape vines. One side of the path was between the vines and the highway and several people honked their horns. Most of the horses were ok with this, but at one point it did cause one of the horses to get a little feisty. The staff gave calm instructions on how to handle this. The staff was great, the scenery was ok and the horses were easy to ride.
