The pioneer trip

Interested in an introduction to winter riding and carriage driving?

Have you always dreamed of learning to drive a horse-drawn carriage like in the movies, amidst picturesque landscapes? Do you want to experience horseback riding in the snow with views of the surrounding mountains? Join us for this 3-day trip, including two nights in a chalet, a 1.5-hour horseback ride, and an introduction to carriage driving.

Put on your warm clothes for the first day and join your guide to groom and saddle your horses. Enjoy the spa in the afternoon to recover from the cold, and dress just as warmly for the second day to groom and harness the horses. Still accompanied by your guide, take the reins and zigzag through the forest with the horse-drawn sleigh.
