Вся важная информация о правилах и условиях
A horse is a strong and fearful creature. Sudden movements, noise and shouting can frighten it. Treat the horse calmly, confidently and gently. Do not run, do not wave your arms, do not break the silence. Approach the horse after calling it by name and making sure it has noticed you. Do not approach from behind — the horse does not see what is happening behind it and may kick. It is forbidden to approach horses while intoxicated, in clothes or with substances with strong odors, or to smoke near the horse. If you have children with you, never leave them unattended! Treat the horse only from an open palm. Horses love pieces of carrots, apples, sugar and crackers. Do not approach with a bag of treats near other horses — they may start fighting and injure you.
When leading a horse, walk beside it with the lead rope removed from the neck. Hold the end of the lead in your left hand, and lead the horse by the bridle with your right. Keep a distance of 3-5 meters from the horse ahead. Do not urge the horse ahead with a whip or hand gesture. Before mounting, check the girths — two fingers should pass under them with difficulty. Do not let a saddled horse with tightened girths lower its head to the ground. Do not take valuables with you or put them in well-fastened pockets. Hats, glasses, etc. — tie them. If something falls, do not dismount without notifying the instructor. Use shoes that easily fit into the stirrup and have a small heel. Do not ride in shoes without a heel, with ribbed soles or thick soles — when falling, the foot may get stuck in the stirrup.
On a ride, riders move in a group — one after another, in a chain. Keep distance: through the ears of your horse you should see the hooves of the hind legs of the animal ahead (two horse lengths). Do not lag behind — the horse may rush to catch up with the others. Do not stop on the path or ride against the group. If the horse breaks away to overtake, move 5-10 meters away and take it to the end of the column. When riding through the forest, lean away from branches forward and sideways from the horse's neck. Remember: the horse only accounts for the width of its body, not your knees — choose the road yourself. If the horse stumbles, do not fall on its neck — lean in the opposite direction to regain balance.
Keep your balance on the horse (like on a bicycle). Do not cling to the reins — they are for control, not for holding you. Commands should be clear and distinct. Do not jerk sharply — control calmly, gently and persistently. Do not hit the horse with your heels! To ask the horse to move forward, press with your leg (the part below the knee) behind the girth. When seeing a tractor, dog, bulky object or unusual sounds — shorten the reins, calm the horse with your voice, distract it with a command, or dismount at the instructor's command.
If you are riding with beginners, do not send your horse into a trot or gallop. Horses are herd animals; the others may run after. If the horse bolts, lean back and vigorously take up the reins, working with your hands alternately. Direct it in a circle and stop it by gradually reducing the radius. If you feel that you are falling, hold on to the mane and loudly ask the instructor to stop the group. Pass the request along the chain. Do not shout unnecessarily — the instructor may think you are falling and stop the movement. If the horse stops, paws with its front leg, lowers its head and sniffs the ground — immediately raise its head and send it forward — it is about to lie down under the rider.
Never take off a jacket or sweater while mounted — while you remove your hands from the sleeves, the horse is left without control. Dismount only when the instructor holds the horse by the bridle. Drop both stirrups, dismount by swinging your right leg over the croup. If you dismount without the instructor, do not leave the horse unattended and do not tie it to fences. In the field, tie the horse with a halter rope to suitable trees high and fairly short. Do not leave until you are sure the knot is secure. After the ride, keep distance from other horses!
Strictly follow all instructions and commands of the instructor. Our horses are calm and experienced, but a horse is considered an object of increased danger. Increased injury risk is due to the fact that the human partner is a large, strong and fearful animal whose actions are not always predictable. The horse always warns about its intentions (ears pinned back, baring teeth, turning its hindquarters) — observe and react. We are not responsible for damage to your life and health. Following these simple rules will allow you to enjoy the ride and have a good time.
