Other programmes
15 min riding for children
The course is designed for children older than 4 years. It is a 15 minutes long ride around the Estate or in the riding ground where we practice the walk. Our instructors lead the horses on a lead, so that a rider can safely get to know the horse’s movement and perform certain exercises.
Riding lesson on icelandic horses or horses for equestrian sports
A single riding lesson is meant for riders who would like to try a somewhat longer ride and upgrade their knowledge. A ride lasts for 45 minutes in a group, including the preparation of a horse. Exercises are performed in all gaits, free or with a lunge line in the riding ground.
Individual riding lessons
Riders who want to ride occasionally or train for a specific purpose can rent a horse with an instructor. The riding takes place in the riding ground and lasts for 45 minutes, including the preparation of a horse.
Terrain riding
Terrain horse riding is a therapy for body and soul. It is done on winding gravel paths around the Estate. Since terrain riding includes a relaxing walk as well as galloping, it is intended only for experienced riders older than 12 years who ride independently in all three gaits. The programme includes the preparation of a horse for riding (brushing, saddling) and a potential test of riding skills. Horses are of smaller breeds and are not suitable for very heavy riders (up to 90 kg).
