Cseppentő course:
During this four-day training, riders can learn different techniques that will help them work more effectively with horses in the future. In addition to the methods that have been built and continuously developed over more than thirty years, passed down from father to son, the family has remained open to new techniques. Thus, their now mature methods include everything from Pat Parellis elements, to the form exercises traditionally used by Hungarians, to the high-school Bent Branderup elements.

Horse riding is a dangerous sport! Horses are naturally flighty animals, and can be startled by sudden noises or movements, jump, or run away, and riders who fall off their backs can suffer injuries! Horses may react similarly to bee, wasp, or hornet stings, and the sounds and movements of forest animals can also scare them! Unfortunately, we cannot eliminate these external influences, so
everyone rides at their own risk!
Every year from September to the end of April, we hold weekly pre-organized group riding, riding lessons or cross-country riding, or both.
In addition, we also organize various occasional multi-day programs, and if there is a sufficient number of interested parties, we can also create a program. Horseback riding is based on prior registration.
Weapons and equipment use course:
Adventure, tradition and knowledge gained on horseback in one place!
The Cseppentő family once again opens its doors to its advanced riders to learn the basics of armed exercises and equipment use.
The family has been active in preserving traditions for more than a decade, including evoking the lifestyle, games and fighting styles of the conquering Hungarians.
We would like to give interested riders a little insight into this! 😉
