Horse riding school "le Mazet"
Le Mazet is the only riding stables located in the Ardèche
Gorges. Open all year round to beginners or confirmed
riders. Outings on horseback or pony rides around the
countryside, lasting from one hour up to 15 days.
"Come and discover the Gorges de l'Ardèche on a horse. A two hours tour, without asphalt. Astonishing views on the Rhone valley between Vercors and Lubéron. If you're lucky, you might see eagles and vultures (38 euro).
Attempt a challenge in the high season: enjoy a bivouac outing and live unforgettable moments. Riders are welcome in the afternoon to prepare their horses. 2h30 riding, overnight in a bivouac (luggage and meals delivered by the assistance). Next day return to the Mazet around 11:30 am. Prices : 89 euro / person (including meal and breakfast).
Hikings from 2 to 15 days with accommodation in bivouac, camping, gîte or hotel in the whole South-East of France : minimum 90 euro / day.
Le Mazet is a family business for over thirty years.
Our permanent staff is qualified with professional certificates (BPJEPS, Accompagnateurs et Guide de Tourisme Equestre) and knows perfectly how to handle horses and which tracks to take. The horses are used to riding in clubs and on hiking tours. Almost all of them have the label “”recreation”” of the IFCE (French Institute of Horse and Horse Riding).”
