Horseback
riding
in Morocco represents an authentic means of discovery
even for remote or hardly
accessible regions and their hidden charms...
Thus, if you are a passionate rider capable of
mounting and dismounting unassisted, who has a firm seat, who is confident and
in control at all paces, then
join us for an unforgettable experience.
Our programs are
made according to your riding level and the
average daily ride is 4 to 6 hours.
Our horses are arabian barb, the most famous North African
horses. In the mountains of Morocco, they are bred
a smaller type of barb named ‘spahis”. Its main qualities are his endurance
over long distance and his “sure foot” on rocky trails.
With our professional and friendly team, you will be guided and even advised to
make your ride even more pleasant.
