Walking is the main gait. Trot or gallop may be authorized only by the guide when the riders, horses, terrain and conditions are suitable; these gaits are never guaranteed.
A suitably sized horse is assigned to the child and a second guide stays close, keeping the child’s horse on a lead line throughout the ride.
If more than one child ages 6 to 9 is in the same departure, the reservation is confirmed according to the required guide availability.
