A Day with Horses – for children aged 8+ and adults
At Jarošův statek we offer a unique full-day programme for children and adults that combines horse care, learning about how horses are kept and riding basics in a playful, relaxed way. Our aim is to:
Encourage respect for horses, ponies and the other animals on the farm,
Teach the basics of keeping horses and ponies,
Show participants how to treat animals properly and handle them safely,
Offer unique moments with the animals in the lovely surroundings of Jarošův statek.
Private Day with Horses
If you'd like a programme that fits your own schedule, we offer a private Day with Horses arranged by phone. It runs much like the full-day club – horse care, grooming and brushing, saddling together, riding, groundwork, and getting to know the animals and how they're kept.
The day (approximate schedule)
8:00 – meet at the farm
8:00–10:00 – turning the horses out, mucking out, horse care
10:00–12:00 – riding training (theory and practice)
12:00–13:00 – lunch
13:00–14:00 – talk about horses, their care and training
14:00–15:00 – topping up water and taking hay out to the paddocks
15:00–17:00 – activities with the horses (walks with horses and ponies, groundwork and more)
17:00–18:00 – preparing feed, bringing the horses into the stables
The schedule may change depending on the weather and participants' needs.
