Mäntymetsä riding trek

A riding trek on Finn horses through the beautiful, pure Lappish nature. The trek goes through forests and fields, in a typical Finnish village environment.

Meet up at the Hethe Riding Stable. Get to know your riding partners and the marvellous Finn horses. First ride in a fenced enclosure, so that everyone can get to know their horses, agree on common rules and check their equipment. Then set off to ride through the wonderful nature of Lapland. The route takes you through beautiful village scenery. En route, you can admire the purity of the nature, the postcard-like river and forest scenery and the unforgettable peace and tranquility. We proceed either slowly or at a faster pace, according to the skill and wishes of the participants. Slowly the route curves back towards the stable. There the horses are released, tended and rewarded with fresh, fragrant hay. At this time, the riders too need a cup of something hot, so coffee or cocoa tastes sweet in the environment of the stable. There is still a chance to go into the stable to thank and say goodbye to your new friends... but just until the next time!
