Valento stables – Slapy nad Vltavou
The stables were established in 2002. The founders aimed, on the one hand, to renew people’s respect for horses and other animals and, on the other hand, to give a second chance to horses with unfortunate histories. In our stables, we particularly emphasise decent and correct handling of horses and respect for their personalities.
Horses living in our stables are there for life. A majority of these horses have had unfortunate histories; some of them were maltreated and suffer from various handicaps as a result of poor care.
Prices:
- ½-hour ride with or without instruction: CZK 260
- 1-hour ride with instruction or children’s rides without instruction: CZK 360
