From Bale, head to Barba Tone ranch in Manjadvorci for horse riding. Beginners learn to handle a horse, while experienced riders take longer trail rides.
The beginner course at Barba Tone covers approaching, grooming and saddling a horse, as well as riding position and control. Lessons run in autumn, winter and spring for riders aged eight and over. The course suits those who want to learn over several visits rather than go for a single ride during their holiday.
Experienced riders can join outings lasting several hours, a full day or several days. Routes start in Manjadvorci in southeastern Istria, away from the Bale coast, and lead towards the sea or inland. When arranging a visit, describe your riding experience so the guides can suggest a suitable programme. The ranch profile below has details of the rides and a riding enquiry option.
