Horse Riding Excursion at Papigo
Activity Description
This ride is moderate the duration simply makes it more difficult for beginners.
There is cantering and galloping on the ride so some basic riding experience is necessary.
We head out of Papigo towards the abandoned village of Ano Kleiodonia. We then head upwards through massive black pine forests and beautiful fields of golden wheat bobbing in the breeze. We then stop for a small picnic in a shaded field and snack while the horses graze freely. Hopping back into the saddle we begin to descend towards the village along another hiking trail leading us to the water tank of the village and offering incredible views of the villages below. This ride must be booked at least a week in advance.
About us
Horse rides and treks for all ages and levels in one of Greece’s most beautiful environments, Papigo, one of 46 villages in the Zagori region, in the heart of the National Park of Northern Pindos. Enjoy the sunset as it paints the majestic cliff faces a deep sultry red while riding among the forefeet of the spectacular Astraka peak (2,436m). You can also admire the endemic wildlife watching golden eagles and kestrels soaring above and hunting the smaller prey of the area. And on a lucky day you might be able to catch a glimpse of a fox, badger, hare or wild boar or see a brown bear scrambling along the cliff faces.
We try to keep the group of riders that will go out together small between 1-8 people so that the experience can be more personal and pleasant for everyone. Hopefully each person will leave us with a better understanding of how such an area of raw natural beauty is so special and necessary and with a wonderful experience to describe to others.
