Horseback riding: are you ready for some galloping with the Pyrenees as a backdrop?
Camille Hommery, of Horsehair in Itself, holds out the reins to you!

On horseback to the bivouac site

Whatever your level and desire for adventure, there is something for everyone.

Between hillsides and mountains , forest tracks , paths leading to a pass or technical passages at altitude , you will be surprised by the wild and preserved nature of Couserans.

The routes will lead you to discover charming stone hamlets , a summer pasture where herds graze peacefully, through forests with majestic trees or along a stream to reach a small village typical of the Couserans.

The Castillonais , an emblematic breed of the Couserans region, is a hardy, courageous horse, perfectly adapted to the mountains . You'll encounter them in the summer pastures alongside the Mérens horses originating from the eastern part of the department . By contacting professionals, you might even have the opportunity to travel on their backs.

A few equestrian lodges are listed, unless you prefer to camp in the mountains.

Professionals will accompany you to share the wonders of Couserans on horseback.

“Notice for independent trekking: to date, it is not possible to guarantee 100% reliability of equestrian trails, it is therefore advisable to contact the Departmental Committee for Equestrian Tourism or the trail representatives who will be able to give you the information necessary to organize your trek.
