Those who do this sport themselves know that nothing gives you greater freedom than horse-riding - especially when you are lucky enough to ride in such picturesque regions as the surroundings of Pécs, or its greater area South Transdanubia. The romantic forests of Mecsek hills, refreshed by springs and brooks; the gentle slopes of Zselic and Tolna hills offer perfect refreshment for horses and their riders alike. Let us highlight here those stables that have reached at least one of the possible five horse-shoes in the qualification process created by the Hungarian Equestrian Tourism Association. This certificate does not only guarantee a certain level of horses and their trainers, but also assures the quality of circumstances in which the horses are kept – an important facet for all of us who care about horses. Each and every stable has their own riding routes – according to the given season and the weather conditions. If you wish to discover these routes on a horseback, please ask for guidance and advice of the local riding guide.
