Additional Information

Interacting with a horse and forming a human-equine bond is one of the greatest pleasures of horse riding. We facilitate this unique connection by enabling our clients to engage in grooming, brushing, and preparing their horse which reinforces this relationship.

Just before they embark on the ride, our clients have already cultivated a deep emotional attachment with their horse, creating an invigorating experience. This extraordinary opportunity, which allows individuals to learn significantly about horses while enjoying an adventurous ride, is increasingly rare to encounter.
