Children Horse Riding Lesson

Add to wishlist

Give your child the experience of connecting with the calming energy and wild spirit of our beautiful Sumba ponies.

All of our NIHI® Sumba children’s activities are thoughtfully designed to encourage sensory learning, gross and fine motor skill development, cross-cultural exploration, imaginative play, introspection, and interpersonal skills.

Through unique encounters such as horseback riding lessons inspired by Sumbanese culture, our team (formally trained to scaffold each child’s learning journey) ensures the experience is both enriching and interactive. With safety and joy as our top priorities, every activity becomes a memorable moment of discovery within our family resort activities at NIHI Sumba.

Overview

Let our team explain the basics of riding, while leading your little one on a fun and gentle stroll. Your child will be safely supported during their time in our riding enclosure.

More advanced riders may be given the chance to move into a faster trot and play some interactive games with their pony and our horse team while in the saddle.
