Equestrian excursions are readily found in Franche-Comté and can be quite a relaxing way to tour the region, whatever age or number of people. A tour of some part of the region should definitely make it into the family outing planner.
How long do you have to spend in Franche-Comté? With 1,100km of marked out trails of Haute-Saône and through Doubs before finding 1,500 km of equestrian tracks of the Jura to explore, your going to have your huffs full.
Various Excursions in the heart of the mountain pastures of Haut-Doubs tailor to the full range of riders from beginners to cowboys and girls. Forests, vast plains, mountain trails will challenge and entertain you, finished off perhaps with an outdoor candle lit supper.
The main equestrian tour is a 2,000km circuit that loops around the region and is ideal for the travellers wishing to discover the area with horse. This circuit is made of two loops with the town of Champagnole at their centre point.
For the most independent riders, there are routes spread out over 1,500km of non-guided routes which also give access to quality lodgings. There are excursions, during winter guided by nearly 40 approved professionals. The saddle pain will be well worth it!
