Horseback riding Podhradie (okres Topoľčany)

Many people imagine a ranch as a place focused strictly on cattle or horse breeding. At Ranč pod Babicou, they will convince you that this doesn't have to be the case. This ranch is located in the village of Bojná, which is famous for archaeological finds documenting the process of Christianization among the Slavs.

Whatever your religious faith, be sure to plan a trip to the Horná Nitra region, where Ranč pod Babicou will charm you with its atmosphere. You can admire the surrounding nature, as the ranch spreads across the foot of Považský Inovec. By car, you can reach the edge of Bojná from its center by following directional signs. Right here, the entrance to the ranch awaits you.

Mostly families with children, as well as groups of colleagues or parties of students, seek out the ranch to get a look at various species of animals. The local menagerie features more than 40 animal species from 6 continents of the Earth. Will you be enticed by the fluffy coat of the alpaca llama, captivated by the atypical coloration of the jaguar, or rather charmed by the macaque monkeys, peaceful at first sight? In addition to other exotic animals, you can observe the beauty of diverse birds, the movements of various fish species, or the daily life of farm animals. Woodland wildlife is also popular, where, besides deer or badgers, you will also see our common mountain inhabitant, the bear.

There are two ponds within the complex, which will be appreciated by both experienced anglers and all other visitors to the site. No fishing license is required. You can catch trout, carp, pike, and zander. The operators will happily prepare and serve your catch in the restaurant. After this activity, you can try others as well, for instance, horseback riding or archery. As part of a teambuilding event, you can play mini-football and beach volleyball, walk on wooden stilts, or saw wood. Kindergartens and primary schools prefer the children's playgrounds with attractions where kids can entertain themselves for hours.

Visitors have at their disposal the round arena "Koral", a rectangular sand arena with various obstacles, and a rectangular grass arena for experienced riders. These three riding arenas are outdoors. Riding is possible on two horses, two mares, and ponies. Instructors will recommend the right one for you according to your experience.

From the range of services, you can choose training sessions with an instructor, field rides, horseback rides within the club grounds, leading and grooming a pony, animal-assisted therapy with a pony, horse rental for competitions, stabling of your own horses, as well as renting a country cottage.
