more photos | enquiry | availability check
This is a fantastic opportunity to ride in an unspoilt natural beach environment off the shore of Estonia in Eastern Europe and enjoy the charms of historic Tallin on the last day. We start with a short flight to the little city of Kärdla, situated on the island Hiiumaa, which is an experience in itself. There are magnificent views of the beautiful island's white sandy beaches and deep blue ocean. When arriving you get the feeling of being in another world with peaceful days that come and go. The island consists mainly of forest in the middle, open fields with old farm houses and long beaches where the bird life is magnificent. The horses are brought up and live their life free along the beaches. They are brought in for riding and then let out after every day so they can be with the rest of the herd. The week ends with a day in Tallinn’s old city inside the stone walls. Dinner here in one of the medieval restaurants gives a wonderful end to the trip.
