Horse riding holidays in Mari El. Horse rides
The land of clear lakes and taiga forests, herbs of vast meadows and healing mineral springs- all this is Mari El. Even the history of the Mari land is closely connected with the unique nature of the republic. From ancient times to this day, in the center of Russia, not far from the banks of Mother Volga, leaves rustle sacred groves, where residents of surrounding villages gather for prayers and celebrate community holidays, turning to ancestors and spirits. Alive and gigantic oak, under the shadow of which Emelyan Pugachev himself stopped for the night with his detachment.
Today, perhaps the most ecologically clean region of European Russia, the Mari El Republic has every chance of becoming a center of equestrian tourism. Both horseback riding and multi-day horse travel are becoming increasingly popular here; Ancient rituals and folk festivals are recreated, in which horses play leading roles.
Ten years ago, any choice of horse routes was out of the question. In collapsed collective and state farms, horses were either completely exhausted or turned into a burdensome “burden” on the privatized real estate. Horseback riding trips at that time were organized only in the territory national park « Mari Chodra" The revival of horse breeding began quite recently, when stables appeared that belonged to private horse breeders and organizations. Today, most of them teach children horse riding for free and introduce them to equestrian sports, the level of development of which is indicated by the frequency of various competitions: in the summer, competitions are held almost every week.
And where there is sport, there is tourism. Tourists are loved here and, perhaps, even pampered, which more than compensates for the rather modest accommodation conditions. Stables are located almost throughout the republic, and infrastructure development is lagging behind. Currently, a comfortable hotel with amenities in the room is located close to only one stable; tourists are brought to others from a few hotels in the capital of the Mari Territory - Yoshkar-Ola or nearby sanatoriums and with recreation centers .
Equestrian tourism in Mari El acquires a special charm thanks to its rustic flavor: one-story houses with three windows, pastoral landscapes with peacefully grazing cows and important strolling chickens. Local culinary traditions and the truly exotic – kumys, the healthiest of all fermented milk products – are of keen interest to tourists.
Horses in Mari El are treated with care and attention. They are not just looked after, but cared for and cherished. Instructors have sports ranks, and often have special education - medical, veterinary, physical education. Therefore, the horses are healthy and well trained. Sometimes tourists simply cannot resist running their hands through the horses’ silky mane once again while sitting in the saddle.
