Come to ride in Cyprus
the island home of Aphrodite,
and treat your senses to a myriad of
unparalleled delights!
ENJOY THE NATURE...
Ride your horse amongst the most exquisite mix of mountainous and coastal scenery, wildlife and history. Butterflies, Bee Eaters and Byzantine churches; goats and Greek temples; mouflon and the Mediterranean; orchards and orchids. Bestride the vast Akamas peninsula with views of two coasts of Cyprus - see the famous turtle beaches.
SEE THE HISTORY...
Treks which meander through traditional villages and past bridges of the old Venetian camel trail. Paths which take you deep into the mountain forest. Woodland tracks which open out onto wide undulating plains. Ride through the deserted Turkish villages - a stark reminder and a fascinating, intimate insight into a rarely seen aspect of this beautiful island's recent history.
HAVE AN ADVENTURE!
Get seriously far away from it all- stay at a forest
hostel or in a tipi. Lazy days, taking in images of unparalleled beauty which
unfold around you as you and your horse peak the ridge of one valley and command stunning views of the next.
YOU DESERVE SOME FUN!
Feel the wind in your face and the warm sun on your back

Welcome
Ride in Cyprus Ltd is based near Lysos,
12 km SE of Polis on the road to Stavros tis Psokas and adjoining the Paphos
Forest . There are spectacular rides from the stables in all directions.
Forest tracks overlook the coast to the North West and mountains to the
East. There are valley rides through volcanic rock formations and out onto
the rolling plains where you can discover deserted Turkish villages. The
scenery here is undoubtedly unparalleled in Cyprus.
Our team comprises six horses - Farouk, Shadow, Freebie, Harry, Levantino and Eclipse. Most were bred for racing and this is their second career – Farouk, Shadow and Levantino look after novice riders, but will also enjoy a better rider who can ‘press their buttons' too! They are 16hh and 12 to 14 years old. Freebie is for an experienced rider, 17hh and 21 years old (but thinks he is much younger!) Harry is five and fun and growing into 16.1hh. Eclipse is 4 and almost 15hh. They all love their job and work very well as a team. Groups are therefore small and intimate!
We have a permit from the Department of Forests to ride in the forest – so day picnic rides and overnight trips to Stavros (where you can stay in the hostel) explore well ‘off the beaten track'. We often see wild Mouflon, various birds, butterflies, flowers and lizards etc.
The hotel nearby offers luxury accommodation for a centered riding holiday, as a base for the longer treks, or somewhere for the non riders in your group to chill out while you ride!
The longer treks are during spring and autumn (March to May and mid Sept to Christmas) - day rides and hour/two hourly treks run all year, depending on the weather. The speed and route chosen depends on the experience of the riders and the condition of the ground. A mixed group will ride to the pace of the least experienced, but every effort is made to keep your group private for your maximum enjoyment.
We look forward to meeting you.
