Horse riding experience
I participated with my family. It was my first time riding a horse, and it was fun. However, my body was moving up and down in sync with the horse's pace, so my inner thighs and buttocks were a little sore. (This review has been machine translated) -
It was great!

Just a horse
I went from Sapporo to Furano, a two-hour trip one way, because I wanted to go horseback riding with him. I was pulled the whole time, so it was an hour of leading the horse. As you can see in the photo above, there wasn't just one guide on horseback, but one person led each horse. It was very boring. If it weren't for the Doumin discount, 10,000 yen would have been too expensive and I wouldn't have gone. I wanted to be taught how to move the horse while riding, so I didn't expect to be led by a horse. (This review has been machine translated) -

Horse trekking
The staff were all very kind and I was able to enjoy the trekking experience with peace of mind. It was an hour, but it went by in a flash and I wanted to extend it because it was so much fun and the horses were so cute. I would like to go trekking again when I go to Furano.

Great time
When my husband and I went on a 4-night, 5-day trip to Hokkaido in July, we really wanted to try horse riding, so we found this site. We arrived about 30 minutes earlier than planned, but they were happy to accommodate and we started straight away. Once I got on the horse, my back straightened out and it felt really good. I felt blissful as I was rocked along the forest road, looking up at the sky, admiring the plants, and feeling the pleasant breeze. The horses were born and raised on a ranch, so they were very well behaved and I was able to ride with confidence. It was easy to find as it was at the entrance to the hotel where we stayed last time, and it's also a very convenient location for our next sightseeing trip. I've traveled to Hokkaido about 10 times, and I'd definitely like to visit again next time. (This review has been machine translated) -
Trekking Experience
On June 23rd, four friends from work and I experienced a 60-minute forest road trekking course. It was the first time for all of us to ride a horse, so we were nervous about whether we could actually ride, but the guide was with us the whole time, so we were able to experience it with peace of mind. We went around inside a few times before going outside. It felt great trekking while breathing in the fresh Hokkaido air. I want to practice more and be able to ride by myself someday. I want to go and see Nene-chan again♬ (This review has been machine translated) -
Horse trekking in Furano
I took the 1-hour course on September 21st. I had been looking forward to horse trekking for a long time. We were blessed with good weather that day, and the guide's explanations were easy to understand, so I was able to enjoy it thoroughly! For me, who usually lives in a big city, it was a truly happy hour to be able to walk in the great outdoors with my beloved horses. The 2-hour course is currently on hiatus, but next time I would like to take the 2-hour course! Thank you to the guide and Hotaru-chan! (This review has been machine translated) -
Trekking
Thank you for letting me experience the 1-hour trekking course! The explanation was thorough and good, but... it was like a horse-riding experience, and we went outside holding the leash and stayed with it until the end, and my friend was alone, while I was guided on the leash, which was really disappointing... I went to Hokkaido to ride horses, so I was very disappointed when I got back. I don't know if it's the system, or if I'm just not very good at it... (This review has been machine translated) -
Definitely recommended!!!
It was my first time riding a horse, so I went in with a mixture of excitement and anxiety, but the staff were very kind and taught me carefully, and I was able to ride right away. After practicing in the arena, I went outside onto the road and was able to feel the indescribable nature on the back of a horse, which was really fun. The horses were adorable, cute, and smart, and I was completely smitten. The thoughtfulness of the staff was also wonderful. I would definitely like to go again♪ Highly recommended!! ☆☆☆☆☆ Five stars (*^^)v (This review has been machine translated) -
Next time I'd like to try the two-hour course!
My daughter, a junior high school sophomore, and I went on a one-hour horseback riding experience. It was my daughter's first time riding a horse, so she was nervous before getting on, but we were explained everything carefully and practiced before going on the trek, so she felt at ease. It was difficult because the horse didn't always move the way we wanted, but it was the best memory of Hokkaido for both mother and daughter. Next time, I'd like to try the two-hour course.
