Horse Holidays France, a unique experience for all the riders.

Rides

As experts in outdoor horse riding, we offer horse rides and treks to suit all levels of riding ability: from beginners to experienced riders.

All our guides are qualified: whether riding instructors or equestrian tourism guides, they will supervise you and provide information on the local flora and fauna, as well as the cultural and historical heritage. These rides are ideal for friends, families and even couples.

You can book directly online for the following packages: a private ride in Versailles and the ‘Duo’ ride in Maisons-Laffitte. We have a team of Icelandic horses. Thanks to the unique genetic characteristics of Icelandic horses, we can introduce you to the tölt, a very steady and comfortable gait without the bounce of the trot. For experienced riders, we can also canter. Maximum weight for riders: 75 / 80 kg.

Special requests: contact us directly to organise your ride!

If you wish to book a DUO ride but you are on your own,
If you wish to take part in a private SOLO ride (as an individual),
If your enquiry involves more than one person,
If the weight of one or more riders is between 80 kg and 90 kg.
