1-5 days Internediate+riders Kvemo Kartli region
Stay in one peaceful place and ride out into a new landscape every day.
Our centre-based rides are perfect for riders who want comfort, flexibility, and authentic time with horses—without changing accommodation.
You’ll stay at our family-run guesthouse, just steps from the stables, and be hosted by our team throughout your stay. With no fixed daily pressure, you can choose your riding days freely, enjoy slow mornings, or simply relax on the property and rejoin the next ride whenever you wish. Riding from the same base allows you to try different horses and find the one that suits you best.
Each day offers a different route through Asureti’s countryside, guided by experienced local riders, before returning to the guesthouse for warm Georgian hospitality.
Choose 1–5 riding days, mix routes by level and interest, and enjoy a calm, flexible riding holiday—designed around you.
Every holiday at Asureti Riding Club is designed with flexibility in mind. Some rides are suitable for beginners and families, while others are ideal for confident or experienced riders who enjoy a more active pace. If you’re not sure which level fits you best, just ask—we’re always happy to help you choose the right ride.
One of the biggest advantages of a centre-based stay is the freedom to take breaks. If you ever feel like resting, exploring the property, or enjoying some quiet time, you can simply skip a ride and join the next one. Being based right at the stables also makes it easy to try different horses throughout your holiday until you find the one that feels just right.
From long weekends to week-long expeditions, find the perfect adventure
