Horseback riding Vaucluse

Whether you're new to this noble animal or an excellent rider, the center offers a range of rides with original themes on the relationship between man and animal. You can also take a ride in the garrigue, the hermitage, the hills, at sunset with champagne or even swim with your mount. We also offer trips in Provence, with varied itineraries chosen with the same care.

Courses are offered all year round, from beginners to advanced riders. Horse-drawn carriage rides are also available at this renowned equestrian center.

Take a free donkey ride and discover the landscapes, flora and fauna of Mont Ventoux, a unique experience for the whole family. The donkey sets the pace for the hike, and you'll soon discover that its presence opens doors and loosens tongues in the hamlets you pass through. Contrary to its reputation, this animal is intelligent, endearing, clever and cuddly. Your donkey will carry your luggage (30 kg to 40 kg) or one of your children (under the responsibility of an adult). At the start of the tour, you'll be given all the advice you need.

Eric Moreau, who comes from a farming family, has always loved farm animals. He has long since opened his farm to visitors. He has pack donkeys available for day or multi-day excursions, with or without accompaniment. Knowing the area like the back of his hand, he'll be happy to point out various interesting hiking trails for you to follow. On site, young and old alike will enjoy discovering and touching the animals on the educational farm: cows, horses, donkeys, goats, sheep, pigs, geese, turkeys, ducks, chickens, rabbits... All accustomed to their young visitors, their docility makes them a safe outing. Workshops, information sheets and games are available for children. You can spend a good part of the day at the farm, and even have a picnic (tables and chairs are provided free of charge).

What a funny name! The owners, Muriel and Jean-Pierre, are also beekeepers. The donkeys live with pigs and farmyards. The hikes are done off the beaten track with or without accompaniment. At its rhythm, the donkey carries children and picnic, motivates the walk and you follow it while strolling, discovering the flora. Muriel will give you all the advice you need to learn how to drive this affectionate animal. A nice family walk with the Ventoux and the Dentelles de Montmirail in the background.

Thinking of following in the footsteps of Stevenson, who linked the southern Massif Central to the Cévennes? Jean-Louis invites you to meet the donkey who could be your travel companion. The association owns 7 donkeys. You'll start by brushing the animal for a first contact. Afterwards, children can take the donkeys for a one-hour ride. You'll discover that donkeys aren't all that stubborn - it's just a question of trust. And donkeys are used to other audiences: they regularly visit schools and nursing homes.
