The Beginner Riding Experience is perfect for riders with some prior experience who want to enjoy a guided trail ride along scenic sand dunes. The session begins with an assessment and instructional lesson in the arena, covering essential skills such as mounting, leading, turning, stopping, and riding up and down gentle slopes. Riders are also given the opportunity to trot under the guidance of a qualified instructor. Once confident, participants take to the Sand Dune Trail, riding at a controlled walk with small trots if the instructor feels it is safe. Along the way, riders can enjoy stunning views of the coastline and mountains while building confidence and refining their riding skills.

This experience is suitable for children from eight years old who have prior riding lessons as well as adults seeking a fun, semi-private or small group adventure. All rides are carefully supervised to ensure safety, and each participant receives personalized guidance. Photography is available on request, and guides are happy to capture memories during the ride. The ride emphasizes horse welfare, safety, and skill development while allowing participants to enjoy the natural beauty of the area in a relaxed and supportive environment.
