Hungary’s first equestrian tourist route will soon be available
As they wrote, not very high mountains, picturesque slopes, soft, largely loess soil are the factors that make Hungary unique in Europe for equestrian tourism. All this is just a matter of geography. Compared to Western Europe, there are fewer private areas sealed in nature in Hungary, so the Hungarian landscape is an excellent destination for those who want to explore the region on horseback, they wrote.
Recognizing these circumstances, the Kincsem National Equestrian Program was launched in 2012.
According to the announcement, the program will designate four routes in the country for riders in the coming years, the first of which, EuroHorse 1, has already been completed and will be accessible to the general public from 2022 onwards. Along the 1,800-kilometer route that runs through the country to the north, 31 equestrian reception points have been set up where horses can be catered for and accommodated. Rest areas will be available for booking online.
One such EuroHorse 1 reception point was set up by the Hungarian Equestrian Tourism Public Benefit Association at the Edelény City Sports and Leisure Center. The special feature of the GINOP source is that in addition to equestrian tourists, it will also serve the students of the local St. Nicholas Greek Catholic Primary School, as equestrian education will be held for the schools, they wrote.
