Horseback riding Vienne

How cuddly the donkeys of La Belle Anée are! After having shown you how to place the pack-saddle on the back of the animal to carry the famous donkey (your bag, your picnic and your tired little legs), Estelle will show you the route to follow to walk with your donkey on the surrounding paths, for an afternoon, a day or a few days. In the evening, choose between the campsites and gites selected by Estelle. Your companion will sleep under the stars in a prepared enclosure. A privileged moment to share with your family!

Children aged 4 to 11 and their parents can come here for a breath of fresh air on a pony. During the school vacations, they can come every day and choose between a ride in a horse-drawn carriage or on the back of one of the eleven ponies of the equestrian club to discover the woods of Saint-Pierre on their valiant steed. No reservations are necessary, and you can sign up on the spot on the day. Rides depart every half-hour.

Since 1977, the Rabouan family has been sharing its passion for horseback riding with everyone, even the very youngest, from the age of one. The infrastructures are amazing (two covered riding arenas, three careers, two initiation rounds, a natural cross-country course) and the activities are varied (rides in the heart of the forest, dressage, obstacles, pony-games). Natural horseback riding is the main focus. Two gîtes and dormitories are available with home-made organic and local meals.

This establishment is both an educational farm and a center for horse therapy and equestrian tourism.

Valérie invites you to discover the Poitou region, its history, its rolling green landscapes and its culinary specialties, on customized rides and weekends.

In the heart of the Domaine de Roiffé, the Haras des Ouches equestrian center offers equestrian tourism, rides, but also courses and training.

From 18 months onwards, even the youngest children can discover the pony. A ride in a carriage, for up to 8 people, is also possible. More unusual, you can ride a dromedary or camel for a baptism, a unique experience.
