Horse riding in Papigo Claimed

We leave the main road and travel towards Prophet Elias’ church after passing through a tiny intersection. From arid rocky cliffs to lush oak forests and stunning views of the area around us, this path provides a diverse range of landscapes.

As we descend, we pass through some lovely old fields that serve as balconies, providing a spectacular view of the towns of Viko and Aristi, as well as the valley and its towering cliffs.

Along this journey, there are a few spots where you can canter. This ride is only for experienced bikers. All rides are subject to the weather! (Thunderstorms, high winds, or ice ground conditions prevent us from going out.)

In the event of mild rain or snow, rides will be held.

Depending on the rider’s aptitude, age, and skill level, we provide a range of rides. All of the rides take place in the great outdoors, on goat paths, dirt roads, open fields, and little woodland trails, all of which provide breathtaking views of the region!
