SPECIAL DEPARTURE RIDES & WATER PAINTING IN UDABNO 2025

The ecosystem of Udabno offers the perfect match of water painting and horse riding activities. Why not combining them? We take some short breaks at places offering some spectacular mix of colours, architecture, natural structure, sceneries, instant staging, the essence of the trip that Diane Bonnemain catches with talent. She will teach how to catch the right moment, sketch, improve and fine-tune your painting. Open to beginner and expert.
We start our horseback trekking at the edge of a patch of natural reserves and national parcs. This 6 days winter trip offers spectacular sceneries, hidden paths and monasteries dating back the 6th century.
We meet some shepherds on our way on their wintering territory and some monks who inhabited the cave dweller cities. We ride through the desert, eroded reddish mountains, visit some very ancient caves, cross some huge plateau and ridges, see some ghost soviet collective farms. We discover everyday new surprising landscapes. We ride the Tush horses, the local bred from the Caucasus Mountains.
We are mostly away from touristic trails.
