FAQs: Horseback Riding

What should I know about Horseback Riding ?

Horseback riding is the activity of riding a horse through a landscape for sport and leisure. It is a fun and exciting way to delve into a destination and its culture by seeing it from the saddle. It can be enjoyed along ocean shores and high mountains, and replaces the physical demands of hiking and climbing with that of equestrianism. To enjoy a great horseback riding experience, you just need appropriate clothes and footwear, a horse, and a saddle with accompanying equipment and safety gear, including a helmet.

Horseback riding expeditions can involve a brief morning ride or a sustained cross-country journey; programs and trips can last for as long as the participant wants to explore a region by horseback. Some adventures include camping options, while others immerse participants in a region or area for a deeper specific experience. Knowledgeable local guides can enhance a trip with information and instruction, making it a compelling way to discover a new land.

Why should I choose Horseback Riding for my outdoor adventure?

Get to Know Wildlife!

What better way to gain wilderness experience than by trotting through it on horseback? It is just as exciting as it appears in the movies, and it is a great way to add a new angle, perspective, and level of your understanding to a natural location. Get away from the crowds and connect with a trustworthy animal!

Safely Learn How to Ride!

Take advantage of your next vacation by learning a new skill. Riding a horse can be fun to learn and can be practiced anywhere. There are horseback riding locations all over the world, from sought-after beaches to mountains and valleys. Pick your dream destination and finally learn how to ride!

Travel Back in Time!

One of the best reasons for joining a horseback riding program is to place yourself in a new location and discover its history. By doing so on horseback, you are transporting yourself into a different time, one where horse-based travel was the best way to get around. Not only does it make your experience more authentic and empowering, it adds a level of comprehension to the development of travel.

Despite providing details (age, height, experience) for all riders, we turned up and were told the two girls were too young/too small for the trek. This would have been better sorted out before we booked since we had driven some distance and paid in advance of the trek. We were eventually allowed to proceed, but the guide was not in the best of moods about it and no allowances were made, which did make it very difficult for the youngest one who ended up being scared on the unfamiliar mountain trail. On the plus side, the horses were fantastic and clearly very well trained and if you can speak French and know how to look after your own horses this would be a fantastic trek. Not so good with kids who don't speak French and if you don't know how to tack up! It would have been helpful to have known about these requirements / limitations before booking as we would have found something more suitable to do.

The trip was amazing. The climb especially. Not being used to horse riding it was quite exhausting but overall we were very satisfied with how the day went.

I had several private classes and a trail ride booked with Christophe Andre. I ride western and was very happy with several days riding instructions for English style riding. The facility is spectacular has open and covered arenas and position between Glacier de Bossons and alpine meadows. Christophe has horses for every level of rider from the novice to experience. All riding gear is of very good quality and saddles/ pads and blankets are in impeccable shape. The trail ride is suitable for riders of all levels, there’s a opportunity to trot and do galloping if a composition of the group permits. I recommend a private tour, so you will not be limited by the ability of others. Trail goes up to the mountains, across the river, alongside of the glacier into the lash forest. Christophe is very fun, light and very knowledgeable instructor. Spectacular rider himself he was very patient with my novice to the riding friend and was very attentive to all our needs during the 3 hrs adventure. I would definitely come next year again with my family!
