Horseback riding in the mountains
Horseback riding in the mountains
Everyone in the saddle in Valfréjus for a week 100% dedicated to horses!An equestrian tourism event in the heart of the Alps. Valfréjus is a pioneering resort! Naturally, cowboys and wide-open spaces are a familiar sight here! The "A cheval en montagne" festival is an opportunity to plunge into the equestrian atmosphere and introduce the public to riding and new horse-related sports disciplines.
It is also an opportunity to learn more about the horse with new "ethological" approaches to animal welfare and the human-horse relationship.
here cowboys and wide open spaces are known!
All summer long, the Valfréjus equestrian center offers horseback riding, day trips and multi-day raids to discover the wide open spaces of Valfréjus, Mont Tabor and the Haute Maurienne Vanoise.
