Welcome to Zdravets!

A few words about the
"Natural Horsemanship" philosophy

Zdravets Riding Academy was created with care for young people, a deep love of nature and a special bond with horses!

We practise Natural Horsemanship, a gentle way of caring for and working with horses based on natural communication and understanding.

Our mission
We believe that riding the Natural Horsemanship way is much more than a sport. It teaches patience and empathy, builds character and helps children grow their social skills.

Zdravets Horse Riding Centre is the perfect place for a real break in the unspoilt beauty of the Balkan Mountains. For a whole week, children get the wonderful chance to spend every day with their beloved horses, riding them and caring for them. With our qualified instructors, we offer riding lessons and treks on horseback to landmarks and historic sites.

Come and celebrate a different, unforgettable birthday for your child, out in nature with everyone’s favourite animals, the horses. We’ll ride, play fun outdoor games, and our host will prepare a personal programme to suit the children’s ages and group size. Once everyone has arrived, the real fun begins: we meet and make friends with the ponies, and a little later we go riding!

Exciting, educational and fun!

Imagine a day when school desks make way for green meadows and pure joy! At Zdravets Horse Riding Centre, little ones discover the magic of connecting with horses, play on our Hora-dzhagi playground, try archery and get close to ancient trees and the history around the monastery. Their first ride brings a spark of pride and memories for life!

For teams who love the outdoors, we offer a wide range of activities and games designed above all to recharge your team with positive energy. We also create tailor-made programmes that address what gets in the way of your team working at its best.
