About the education
Each weekday morning at the Horseback Riding Camp, we travel from our camp venue to the nearby Gyenesdiás Riding Club, where qualified instructors lead our riding sessions. The classes are based on skill level: beginner and novice riders get about a half-hour riding lessons each time, on a lunge, while more advanced riders get about an hour-long lessons with or without a lunge, inside a paddock. More experienced riders also have the opportunity to try simple show-jumping–style exercises, such as basic pole work in all three gaits, adapted to their level of experience.
In the remaining time campers can learn about the most interesting aspects of horse care, and take part in games and activities organized by our group leaders. We travel to the riding center by minivan and return to the camp in time, allowing campers to choose another subject during the second two-hour activity block of the Funside Balaton Camp.
* Safety notice: Participation in riding classes is only possible while wearing a riding helmet and back protector. If needed, both the helmet and back protector are provided free of charge on site. The campers’ riding proficiency is checked by the instructors on the first morning to adequately assign the most fitting group, keeping safety of the rider the top priority.
