Dionysus Trail - North Macedonia

Dionysus Trail

5 star rating   19 April 2026

Tine Anette who has been on 3 In The Saddle rides. Got help to correct the gel pad with 2 lambskin so my "sit nodes" were fine.
It's a bit hard on the knees to just walk or canter. A little trot in between would "exercise" the knees a bit more.
Super cute horses that are very easy to ride.
A bit annoying that the back up guide found it necessary to bring a speaker on the horse ... I like to enjoy the peace and nature when I'm on horseback
Impressed by their focus on safety... thank you for that

Do you have any other feedback for us?

It took just a few days to understand what an extensive network of safety Vasco's team provided for us:
Own radio frequency in the mountains, ability to quickly call for help, care for the horses
It's the largest support team I've seen on a riding holiday so far.
Great.
