2. Choose your riding holiday according to your riding level:
beginner horse riding holiday : Equestrian vacations accessible to all levels of riders, having had a first experience and knowing at least how to walk and trot in order to make the most of the stay. Some of these rides are open to beginner riders, and / or may be suitable for experienced riders: they are offered at all levels and all experiences, groups of levels can be offered. See the "equestrian info" tab on the page of the stay that interests you.
conformed rider holiday: Stays and horse rides for riders comfortable at the three gaits (walk, trot, canter) but with little or no experience of outdoor riding.
good rider holiday: For experienced riders comfortable at the three gaits (walk, trot, gallop) outdoors, able to evolve on all types of terrain.

3. Choose the type of riding holiday:
stage équitationRiding courses, with courses in an arena, and some horse riding and treks on certain courses.
stationary horse riding holidayHorseback rides in star, with return every evening to the same accommodation: suitable for unconfirmed riders outside or who want a stay without having to change accommodation every night.
horse riding holidaysEquestrian holidays in star radiating around an accommodation, with 1 or 2 nights in different accommodation(s): suitable for riders who wish a progressive stay to prepare for an Inn to Inn riding trip.

Advantages and disadvantages of a progressive Inn to Inn ride and a stationary ride:
The stationary ride:
- A stationary ride around one accommodation avoids having to pack your luggage every day. Accommodation is generally very comfortable. Depending on the weather, it is easy to adapt the program. It is generally easy to change horses during the stay if necessary. Main disadvantage: the landscapes are often similar every day.
The progressive ride:
- A progressive Inn to Inn trtail ride allows to cover long distances with varied landscapes. Disadvantages often experienced as a travel experience: the accommodations have a different comfort every night and you often have to pack ! Other imperatives: be ready to ride whatever the weather conditions, accept that the route varies according to the conditions, trust your guide for the allocation of your horse which cannot be changed along the way except in urgent cases. And finally: progressive rides and horseback trips, with significant logistics, are more expensive: the prices are not justified by the comfort of the accommodation but by the high logistics costs!

4. Choose your comfort:
horse riding campCamps: we do not offer rustic horse holidays. The rides are tent camps, with generally a large mess tent for meals, individual tents with at least one mattress for sleeping, very often showers and toilets. Treks are in comfortable yurts, as in Mongolia, in tents "real tents", sometimes luxury, as on certain safaris. For each stay, go to the "comfort" tabs to see the precise descriptions.
