Horse riding

Horse riding activities

In the Poppy Country, children and teenagers can ride horses in a pony club.

The experienced riders can improve their skills in a riding centre.

For roaming lovers, either with or without a carriage, the royal route of the European Route d'Artagnan goes through the Poppy Country.

Horse riding tours are organized by the "Association Picarde des Randonneurs Eleveurs Amateurs de Chevaux" (APREAC).
