Horse riding holiday in Romania

How this holiday makes a difference

Our visitors get a first-hand experience and extensive information about flora, fauna, and sustainable land-use systems. Our experience of many years of field research about wolves, bears, and lynx are a good basis for discussions about wildlife and habitat conservation. During the construction of all our facilities we have put great emphasis to use environmentally friendly materials. We have well insulated our house which reduces the need to heat during winter and does not require air conditioning in summer. Wood as a renewable resource has been our main construction material and we have abstained from wood preservers as much as possible. All our heating and warm water is based on a modern wood furnace, which allows our business to run with very few carbon emmissions.

We use mainly locally produced food in our kitchen.Our own vegetable garden delivers fresh onions, salad, zucchini etc., other food such as milk, potatoes, lamb or veal is bought from the farmers in the neighbourhood. We have five local employees and receive a large part of the goods and services from the people of Sinca Noua. Our clients are requested to contribute with a donation to our Foundation, through which we realise the development of one of Europe's largest forest wilderness projects.

Where else could you enjoy the warm company of some of Europe's foremost wolf biologists while riding out in remote and stunning landscapes and woods, or relaxing round a wood-burning stove on a cool evening after a hard-day's ride?(read full review)
