Lieu
China is an unexpectedly great place for travelling: it's safe and well organized. Beijing, as the capital, offers top-level security and is well connected by flights, while being the closest major city to open grasslands and riding areas.
What makes it special is that Beijing is also a world-class travel destination. Beyond riding, you can explore the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, and the Temple of Heaven, along with historic hutongs and local food culture.
So this isn't just a horseback journey-it's a complete China experience.
1. The Gateway: Miyun Riverside Riding
- Located at the edge of the mountains surrounding Beijing, the first location in Miyun is a hidden gem.
- The setting: Ride through tranquil riverside paths and shaded woodlands.
- What makes it special: This area provides a serene, technical terrain that is perfect for getting acquainted with your horse. It's a peaceful "warm-up" where you can enjoy the lush greenery of the valleys before we head to the high plains.
2. The Heart of the Adventure: The Bashang Grasslands
- Next, you travel to the legendary Bashang Grasslands, historically known as the "Emperor's Hunting Grounds." This is the soul of our tour.
- The Vast Steppe: Here, the landscape opens up into endless rolling hills and emerald carpets of grass. It is the ultimate playground for any rider seeking freedom and speed.
- The horse town experience (a local icon): Nestled within this breathtaking grassland is Ma Town (中国马镇), a unique cultural landmark dedicated entirely to equestrian heritage.
