Miyak Tribe Trail - North Macedonia

Miyak Tribe Trail

5 star rating   19 September 2021

Line (this is their first In The Saddle holiday) Super nice horses and absolute top fit. We rode the same horses for 6 days, up and down the mountains and they were never tired. The horses were forwardgoing, in the good way, and always ready to canter. They were surefooted and my horse only stumbled once on the 6 riding days. However, it was some long days in the saddle, so the better fit you are, the better the ride will be. Hiking boots to ride in or riding boots with a really good sole are a necessity, because when you walk and lead the horses down the hill, it goes steep down, and it can be a bit difficult terrain.

Do you have any comments about the accommodation and food?

Delicious traditional food that was also adapted to tourists. If you went to bed hungry, it was your own fault. Good variety, and especially delicious on the camping days.

How could we improve the quality of pre-holiday information that we send?

By chance we all arrived, with the exception of two who arrived days before, with the same flight and were also to take the same flight to Vienna. It was a super cozy coincidence.


Do you have any other feedback for us?

Super great holiday. Super nice location, and well planned trip. Vasko, who was the guide on the trip, had so much to tell about the area and the Miyak culture, it was always a sense of why it was just that mountain we crossed over and the story behind. I'm ready to do it again!
