A relationship with horses in Makotsevo, Bulgaria

Ladislav Tsvetkov, November 26, 2009

Good weather beside good mood also gives different opportunities. The "Rider" ranch in the village of Makotsevo on Bulgaria offers the opportunity for children and adults to learn how to ride a horse. But not in terms of a sport but as establishing a relationship with the animals and a walk in nature. The training goes through several stages: how to saddle a horse, how to put the briddles and to tighten the stirrup. How to walk the horse beside you, how to straddle and how to go down the horse. How to lead the horse when on his back.

For the moment this is a slowly growing business in Bulgaria. Taking care for the animals is hard and takes a lot of time, as well as money. Nevertheless, people who are willing to do this can always be found.
