In the beautiful island of Skyros, we offer you small and big rides with horses. In a fabulous natural resort you can enjoy the unique experience of riding. Our horses are trained and suitable for all the family and all levels off knowledge. We provide rides of 15´, 30´ or 60´and off course the 3our excursion on the beach, where you can rest, swim and play. All walks taken place with the presence of Manolis Malamatinis who is in charge of the place. Manolis a real horse whisperer lives with the horses and runs the place for over 25 years working with love, patience and care: the basics elements of the unique relationship between man and horse.

Again in Skyros, again with Manolis and his horses and again a fantastic adventure. It's been a few years from the last time but nothing has changed (some new horses, actually). My children are more grown up now and they enjoyed it even more.

This is the beach of the village of Molos, which is next to the chora (main village, "capital" of a Greek island) of Skyros. It is a very good beach for sunbathing as it is sandy - but be careful in the water, there may be urchins. There are cafes and bars on the beach, there are fishing boats creating beautiful views, and from the beach you can see the magnificent chora of Skyros, with the church and the Venetian castle on top and the snow-white houses below - Skyros, interestingly enough, is an island that is distanced from the Cyclades but has Cycladic architecture. Note that you can also have marvelous views of the beach itself and the village of Molos and the surrounding landscape from the Venetian castle, when you climb to the top of it, a must-do exercise.
