Horseback Riding
The Finnish Horse is a strong, steady, good-tempered animal, with excellent endurance and character. This breed was the all-round workhorse on Finnish farms, used for everything from riding to hauling logs out of the forest. On a riding tour you will get the chance to know your horse well, as well as the unspoiled wilderness that might be too challenging to reach on foot.
You can find horseback treks and horse stables all over Finland. Northern and eastern Finland, like Oulanka and Koli, are favorite territories for horseback treks.
Most of the horse stables are concentrated in southern and central Finland. Ypäjä in southwestern Finland is said to be the equine capital of Finland.
