Description

Csakébon Spirit invites you to discover Provence in a different way, at the pace of a horse. Nestled between scrubland and hills, these rides are designed as a true escape: a moment to reconnect with nature, with animals, and with yourself.

Before your visit, you will receive a message with all the practical instructions: bring long, fitted pants and closed-toe shoes. If you wish, you can also bring carrots or apples to thank your companion at the end of the ride.

The meeting point is at the Écuries de Camaïsse, near Aix-en-Provence. Upon arrival, park in the parking lot at the top, then walk down to the stables. There, you will be welcomed by Sylvia, a certified equestrian guide who is bilingual in Spanish and also speaks English. She will introduce you to your horse and its little personality before you set off.

The experience takes place in a small group, with constant attention paid to the well-being of the horse and that of each rider. Both beginners and experienced riders are welcome: each ride is adapted to your skill level and preferences, for a truly customized experience.

After the safety briefing and once you feel comfortable with your horse, you will set off on a two-hour exploration through the garrigue and the Provençal hills. You will discover the richness of the region, its landscapes and its light, in a gentle, authentic and respectful atmosphere.

The ride ends at the starting point, at the Écuries de Camaïsse. If you wish, you can help groom the horse, a bonding moment to extend your time with it. Then head home with a lasting souvenir: all the photos and videos of your ride will be sent to you in HD via WhatsApp.
