It’s an unforgettable experience enjoying the Zakynthian landscape from the back of a horse! Zakynthos is well known for its experienced riding schools, whether you want to ride in the area of Tsilivi, Alykanas, or Lagana, there is a school nearby.
There are a number of different programmes available, depending on your age and of course, experience. Those who have never been on horseback, too, are ensured a wonderful first time experience, as all schools clearly demonstrate safety, ensuring that the horse each person is given, is the right one for the rider. If you haven’t been on a horse for quite some time and you would like to gain your confidence back, then don’t hesitate, you won’t be disappointed.
There are quite a few different trails and programmes to choose from too, from just a first time experience walk around the school’s yard, to an enjoyable beach expedition, mountain experience……
or a more exotic swim ride, an opportunity not to miss, if you are a little more experienced.
For those who actually want to start lessons as well, all schools are available to start with English speaking teachers.
The prices of the rides and lessons vary, depending on the programme you choose, however, they are not expensive, one thing is for sure you definitely will see that your money will be well worth spent. During your ride you will experience Zakynthos in a completely different way; you will be taken in by the natural surroundings where obviously photos are a must!
