Our beautiful horse, Zaraza.
Horse-Back riding tours or a carriage ride? Great idea! You can explore and discover the amazing nature in this area, from the saddle… And, this is not only about riding… It’s also about the beautiful views, the unique wildlife, the old Saxon villages and the countryside life.
During your tour you can have a break and relax at the shade of an old oak tree, enjoy a delicious snack while admiring the Transylvanian Highlands. For an unforgettable tour, we suggest our partners, the equestrian centre, Villa Abbatis.
Their horses are a mix of Lipizzaner breed and sport horses, trained and groomed at the highest standards.
Șoc, the eldest, together with Leilah, Perolita, Zaraza, Voxy, Mika, Demi, Vera, Bella, Palinca, Robin, Taiga, Dottie, Cezar, Josephine, Gaia, are the horses you will be trained on. They will also lead you on forest paths and hills. Cezar is a gentle giant, very calm with beginners and very reliable steps in and get the carriage moving.
You can choose from various types of trails Villa Abbatis offers:
For those who don’t ride, we suggest a tour in a carriage pulled by horses. It can be in the mountains, in a traditional Romanian village or in the hilly areas. Of course, we can combine the ride with various local visits thus we can enjoy a great day outdoors, combining a cultural visit with a delightful ride and some adrenaline!
Children are also welcome! Together we can learn more about the daily life of the community in this area. We can also learn interesting things about the projects Villa Abbatis has in the area: restoration, conservation, wildlife protection, touristic integration and implementation.
Winter can also be fun, in Transylvania especially when it is snowing. Thus, we invite you for a sleigh ride either in the Astra Open Air Museum (the biggest open air, ethnographic museum in South-East Europe) or in the villages around Sibiu.
