At Vittel you can discover some sublime places in the saddle. For my first outing on horseback (and with a little apprehension), I choose a ride under Amandine’s guidance. After an essential phase of preparing the horse, where I get to know Orion, my mount for the day, I learn the techniques of brushing and hoof-cleaning… Then it’s off, I put the saddle on him, tighten his girth, Orion, impassive, lets himself be done, which is reassuring for me!
When I take him into the riding arena to do a few laps around the track, his step is slow and rhythmic. My mount is used to it, and I’m really enjoying it.
