About This Tour
This ride takes place just 70 km from Sofia at the foot of Rila mountains known as Lakatnishka Rila. The terrain here is more gentle than the high alpine Rila and offers good possibilities for longer trots and canters. We ride on crossbreeds of Arab and local Dunav horses, spending 5-6 hours in the saddle every day. The tack is English. The ride can also be arranged for novices in closed groups. The pick-up time from Sofia is 09.00 am and it takes 1.5 hours to get to the stables.
