Holidays are a time to make memories together, have fun outdoors and get close to nature. And you can’t get much closer to nature than exploring the countryside on horseback.

Horse riding is available on or near 120 of our parcs, so whether you fancy trotting through the trees or cantering from château to château, you can make it happen on a Eurocamp holiday.
