Riding for beginners
Considering the breed’s spirited temperament and large personality, beginners can quickly (after introductory riding in manège) learn the basics of riding. Beginners are recommended a 2-hour ride – they can learn basic horse handling and riding in manège and also try cross-country riding – to the nearby Senožeta hill or Lake Bohinj.
LENGTH: 15 – 30 MINUTES
Riding for children
The relationship between a child and horse gives children the possibility to feel a genuine contact with this noble animal. This has a positive effect on the child and there is nothing more beautiful than seeing a happy and satisfied child’s smile on a horse’s back. Iceland horses are also special due to their kind and pleasant character, therefore the first steps on a horse’s back are quite a safe experience.
We offer walks in nature on horses (saddles with handles for greater safety) with guides. 15-30 min.
