Horse back riding tour

At Stall Sonakull you will ride Western style on Haflinger horses, a breed perfect for the hilly terrains. The excursion starts with preparations for the ride together with Ulrika. This includes calling up the horses from the pasture and saddling them before riding out. Depending on weather conditions, Ulrika will choose a suitable riding tour. Recreation and being out in nature are key elements of this unique experience.

Adventure on horse in the Swedish forest

Like real "cowboys" you get to light a small fire and brew your own coffee in a traditional way. The ride is family friendly with an adventurous feel to it. We ride on small paths and forest roads, past meadows, a small village and rippling streams. Altogether, it is an exciting, rewarding and enjoyable time with the horses. There will be plenty of opportunity to take photos so you can capture those most precious moments.

More details on the horse riding expedition

The sound of the wind rustling in the tree tops, a slight creaking from your horse's saddle and the rhythmic drum of hooves on the ground. During your motor home vacation in Småland you can enjoy the experience of staying overnight in the outdoors and book an exclusive horse-riding excursion with Ulrika, one of the owners of the family-run Stall Sonakull horse farm. The trek takes place in lovely surroundings, only a 15-minute drive from the National Park Store Mossen, the largest wetland in southern Sweden. The excursion is suitable for a family or a small group of friends.

Cowboy style horse ride with coffee break

The excursion starts with preparations for the ride together with Ulrika. This includes calling up the horses from the pasture and saddling them before riding out. Depending on weather conditions, Ulrika will choose a suitable riding tour. Recreation and being out in nature are key elements of this unique experience. After about one hour's ride, it will feel good to dismount the horse. Together with the coffee, you will get a delicious sandwich, homemade pastry and fresh fruit. The children may enjoy juice or lemonade. Upon returning to the stables, you will be able to unsaddle and groom the horses before they are returned to the pasture. Ulrika and her family have lived on the same farm for many generations. The surroundings are beautiful and the farm has a long history which Ulrika can tell you all about.
