Volcanic sands, seaside villages, bamboo and banana plantations, and temples dedicated to the annual rice harvest are just a few of the memorable sights and sounds on this horse riding trek along beaches and native villages.

From your horseback view, you’ll glimpse into village life where culture and tradition entwine, ride along small paths past traditional family housing compounds, home industries and be greeted by friendly smiling faces.

The scenery is beautiful in this peaceful village, where rice farming, fishing and sea salt harvesting are the main activities. Gently sloping rice terraces fringe a sparkling black mineral shore, and riders pause at a waterfall, a salt harvesting area, a temple set on the cliffs, a bat cave and a natural rock headland which juts out of the crystal blue ccean.

Horse riding in Bali is unique and special. On a clear day, you can see the great volcano, Gunung Agung. Swimming with the horse and riding to a seaside waterfall are also subject to weather conditions. But overall, this could be the mystical Bali memory you keep forever.
