a ride to Vassivière
The appointment is given at the equestrian center where Kevin is waiting for us with her horses. You will also meet her dog and cats who do not hesitate to come and say hello. For nature and animal lovers, you’re in the right place!
After assigning us the horses, Kevin plunges us right away into the big bath with the grooming. If like me you come across a rascal, he will have rolled around in the mud just before you arrive. Strangle, brush, hoof pick… Taking care of your horse will have no more secrets for you! Then, we seal.
A small tour in the quarry is necessary, history to familiarize with his mount and get to know. This also allows to remind some rules before leaving.
And it’s off for the ride!
We leave the equestrian center to go deeper into the peninsula trail. From the beginning of the trail the view of the Lake starts to emerge. It promises to be dazzling!
Small passage in the forest. Ours guide to already gauge the level of the riders, she adapts the pace of the ride for the pleasure of all. For beginners, after some advice, you can start trotting on some portions of the path. Beware of tree branches!
We ride along the edge of the Lake and see the nearby Ile de Vassivière. Our guide animates the walk with comments on the lake…it has no more secrets for her ! Attentive, Catherine accompanies you in a beautiful discovery.
We then venture on a path that goes up, up…and there…Wow the view! It’s time to take pictures…but it’s also the snack break for our companions of the day.
Attentive, Kevin accompanies you in a beautiful discovery.
We leave again for the last part of the course. We still take advantage of the clear view on the lake before we go into the forest. The pretty autumnal colors accompany us.
Returning to the Equestrian Center, this magnificent ride is over…or almost!.
Taking care of your mount is essential! We will make the horses drink. Then, we take the time to unseal them, to brush them and to make them a last caress.
We accompany Kevin to release them in their meadow.
This was my first outdoor ride and I just want to…. to do it again very quickly!”
