You've got a couple of choices for horseriding near Protaras, the Saddle Club in Dhekelia do hacks http://dhekeliasaddleclub.tripod.com/

Or there's the Moonshine Ranch in Paralimni which is run by an ex Jockey called Angelo. He does treks down to Konnos Bay (Beach) and Cavo Greko. The tel no. is 99-247406 or 99-605042 they don't have a website currently. It's pretty popular in the summer so best to call them first to book, I think the trips were £20CYP last year. :tup

We did the Horse riding trip from the Moonshine Ranch, what a fantastic bloke he is ! (could have saved a small fortune if we had booked directly with him !!)

Mrs Ask and Daughter either side of Angelo

Those two had done a little horse riding on a holiday in Corfu, turns out I'm a bit of a cowboy and managed to work out the handbrake etc so I could get ahead and take pictures ! LOL

thanks very much for your replies! :) i think angelo looks the most promising as the other one was a membership type club. i have only done one horse ride in my life with the new mrs davetraceyuk on our honeymoon in the dominican republic 13 years ago. Think i spent the first half an hour with my arms wrapped round its neck :lol: ( the horse i mean, not the wife). We were took into the mountain shanty villages which was a real eye opener. one of the local men asked me if i'd swap my wife for his donkey....cheeky sod! there was obviously something wrong with the donkey :roll: so anyway, thats the type of thing i'm after just a turn up and ride with no previous experience necessary. :)
