Discover Mykonos from an unexpected side — away from noisy beach clubs, bustling streets, and popular tourist routes. A horseback ride along the island’s picturesque nature trails will offer the chance to enjoy the beauty of the Aegean Sea, rocky hills, and secluded bays.
Accompanied by a professional instructor, you will embark on a journey through the rural areas of Mykonos, where the atmosphere of traditional island life has been preserved.
Excursion Program
Introduction to the Mykonos Horseland equestrian center
The journey begins at the Mykonos Horseland riding base, located in the picturesque countryside of the island.
Here you will meet the horses, learn about the features of the upcoming ride, and receive necessary safety instructions.
Horseback riding along nature trails
The route passes through rocky hills, traditional agricultural lands, and natural landscapes that have retained their pristine beauty.
Away from tourist centers, a completely different Mykonos opens up — calm, authentic, with small farms, rocky paths, and magnificent sea panoramas.
Secluded Fokos Beach
For experienced riders, there is an opportunity to head to Fokos Beach — one of the picturesque and sparsely populated corners of the island’s northern coast.
Golden sand, rocky shores, and the endless Aegean Sea create excellent conditions for relaxation and photography.
Under suitable conditions, horseback riding along the coastline is possible.
Romantic sunset ride (optional)
For couples, a special individual program is offered — a private horseback ride to the secluded Fokos Beach at sunset.
A romantic setting for relaxation can be organized on the coast upon separate agreement. Specific arrangements and additional services are determined at the time of booking.
This is an unusual way to spend a special evening in Mykonos, enjoying the sea landscapes and the atmosphere of seclusion.
Individual photo session (optional)
Guests can also arrange a photo session with horses against the backdrop of the island’s natural landscapes or the seaside.
