Horseback Adventure for Young Riders

Starting at 09:00 am, little adventurers will get a hands-on lesson in caring for the Hmong ponies before the horseback riding adventure. Assist the friendly groom staff in preparing food for the horses, learn fascinating details about Hmong ponies from a local expert, and even help with grooming– becoming true horse whisperers for the day!

Before setting off on the trail ride, young equestrians will participate in a fun, introductory riding lesson within the safe confines of the riding arena. The adventure then continues at a comfortable pace, traversing through river and forest landscapes. Parents can choose to  walk alongside their children as they ride through the countryside, or participate in a traditional bamboo weaving workshop or dreamcatcher crafting workshop led by local experts. Conclude the day with a delightful lunch—all part of the memorable activities awaiting you during this immersive experience. (L)
