Suitable for intermediate and experienced riders

Day 1.

Arrival day. Transfer from the airport, check-in, rest in the hotel and walking in the city of Kemer (no riding).

Day 2.

Transfer to the stable after breakfast and meeting horses, safety instructions, brushing and saddlin-up.
We’ll ride in the forest around Kuzdere for 2 hours to check group skills and pick up appropriate horses for further trip. We’ll see orange and pomgranate gardens, riuns of ancient village, springs and small palm forest.
Pace: walk, trot, canter.
‌After the ride our guests can relax near the pool or at the beach and pack for trail.
‌We’ll have welcome dinner together and tour to Chimera mountain at dawn.

Day 3.

Let the trail begin. We start right after breakfast. After 1,5−2 hours riding we arrive to beautiful canyon with mountain river. You can drink clean fresh water, swim and make pictures. After that we start climbing the highest mountain of the region — Tahtali (2365 meters above the sea level). The road goes up and perfect for trot and canter.
First stop is in the village called Gedelma. There we see a castle, caves and a very old tree (about 2500 years old).
‌We will spend the night in 150 year old local village house living like Turkish family.
Pace: walk, trot, canter.

‌Day 4.
‌
‌Touch the sky. We start with breakfast and feeding horses. After that we climb Tahtali mountain again. This day we have our highest point up to 2000m. The weather is changing and we are reaching the territory without the trees covered with clouds you can literally touch. After reaching the highest point we start to move down till we reach
Beycik — a village with beautiful mountain and sea view. We make a break there, eat, take care of the horses, take shower and stay in the village for sleeping (in the rooms, no tent).
Pace: walk and trot mostly, short gallops.

Day 5.

We are starting to get down to the sea level. It takes 6−7 hours. The road is surrounded with beautiful bays and untouched nature. After crossing the biggest bay we arrive to the turtle bay for one night accommodation. This is national park and only backpackers allowed. Sometimes you see no people at all on this day. Tents and food are already prepared there. Riders can swim with/without horse.
Pace: walk and trot on the way, canter on the beach (we’ll make nice pics and videos).

Day 6.

Starting our way to the ranch. On the way we cross five bays with marvelous view and an ancient city of Phaselis (2000 years old). This is the most dangerous climbing part as the path to Phaselis is too narrow and rocky. You’ll have to walk beside your horse for some time.
‌It is possible to make a lunch break there. After lunch we are coming back to the ranch trotting and galloping through the village of Tekirova.

Day 7.

Good-bye day. Riders check-out and transfered to the airport. We can buy souvenirs on our way.
‌
‌NOTE: Program can be adjusted to seasonal weather conditions or riders’ specific requirements to stay longer at best locations.
