Espace Equestre Henson-Marquenterre Henson-Marquenterre : riding trail across the forested dunes

Being part of a group corresponding to your level of riding experience, you will encounter the exceptional richness of a private estate made of 2500-acres of forested dunes and wetlands, right next to the natural reserve of the Bay of the Somme: the famous “Domaine du Marquenterre”.

An exceptionally rich fauna and flora is waiting for you. Should you be an advanced rider, you will be able to go at the encounter of the sea and be able to gallop along miles of unspoilt beaches.

Espace Equestre « l’Etrier » - Fort-Mahon-Plage

This ride, superb as well, although in a very different natural environment, will make you discover the Bay of the Authie, “younger sister” of the Bay of the Somme. A totally preserved estuary of a small river of Picardy, lazily wandering around until it reaches the sea, the Bay will unveil for you its secrets, made of dunes, tidal marshes and polders. A magical ride which will surprise you, thanks to both magnificent vistas and hidden landscapes.

Fees and conditions :

The whole experience lasts about 3-hour-within which the riding time is about one-hour-and-a-half. Departures occur 2 to 3 times-a-day, subject to seasons (please check schedules upon booking). The fee per person is 38 €.

The non-riders, especially the elder people or the young children (provided that they are accompanied by an adult), can enjoy the Henson experience carried in a 2-horse drawn carriage led by a seasoned driver who will know how to show them the beautiful scenery of the “Domaine du Marquenterre” or the magical atmosphere of the lowlands around.

This ride is only available at the "Espace Equestre Henson-Marquenterre" (for the moment...).


Discovery ride Passports

Last, we offer a very attractive “Discovery ride Passport” for those who want to enjoy outdoor riding on a more regular basis, without being an owner of a Henson horse. Then, they can familiarize and enjoy outdoor riding as much as they will (subject to the availability of departures with equestrian guides and upon reservation). Thus, the Passport is reimbursed in less than two rides a month.

6-month Discovery ride Passport: 380€ (excluding insurance)
3-month Discovery ride Passport: 190€ (excluding insurance)
