The Horses
Most of our horses were born at our home on the farm at Tourette. They live in herds in the meadows and this is what makes them strong. This social lifestyle is very close to their ideal living conditions, which is a natural environment.
So every horse has its individual character, but all are gentle, balanced, and multi-talented.
The horses are a mixture of Arabian, Paint horses, and Arabian/Paint crossbreds.
At the farm, you will discover Loukia, a purebred Arabian stallion, and Mac Leo a registered Paint stallion. Both horses are available for projections.
