In short: In Ankara, horse riding is a calm yet powerful shared experience for teams who want a break from the pace of the city. Because the programme starts in the arena with an instructor leading, it is safe for first-time riders too.
A corporate riding programme starts in the arena, an enclosed training area. This is far more controlled than starting out in open country: the horse stays within the instructor’s view and the even ground keeps the risk of stumbling low. Participants who want to, and are judged ready, then move on to a short trail. Communicating with a horse depends on calm, clear direction and trust, which makes it a strong shared experience for teams.
The programme runs at riding centres around the city, with coach transport. Centres with an indoor arena work all year; programmes that include a trail run from April to October.
