Set off on a memorable horseback journey through Croatia’s stunning Plitvice Valleys! Your adventure begins at the ranch with horse preparation and a short introduction. Once in the saddle, we’ll follow scenic forest trails and rolling meadows, surrounded by untouched wilderness, wildflowers, and birdsong.

Your destination is the legendary Barać’s Caves, a natural and historical landmark dating back thousands of years. Hidden beneath lush greenery, the caves once sheltered prehistoric animals and artifacts, offering a fascinating glimpse into Croatia’s past.

Upon arrival, horses are safely tied at a shaded resting area, and guests can relax with a picnic in the landscaped park. The journey continues with a guided cave tour, revealing its chambers, stalactites, and underground legends. After the visit, enjoy a scenic ride back to the ranch—an unforgettable blend of nature, culture, and adventure.

    We went horseback riding with Petra, accompanied by our two small children (3 and 7 years old), despite having no prior riding experience. The 45-minute ride around the area and through the forest felt very safe and was a great experience for all of us. The ranch is beautiful, and the horses are well taken care of. We really enjoyed our time there, and the ranch also offers a lovely overnight camping experience.

    Horseback riding with Petra was a highlight of our two-week trip through Croatia. The area is stunning, and Petra has built an incredible ranch with her own hands. She was easy to talk to, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience.
