In a few words

Escape for four days to the Camargue , amidst wild landscapes , iconic beaches , and local traditions. From the Domaine de Maguelone , this stay immerses you in a unique atmosphere, where sea breezes , lagoons, and salt marshes shape exceptional landscapes.

Explore this unspoiled territory on horseback, at the pace of the hooves, getting up close to nature. A highlight of the trip: the legendary raft ride , guided by a passionate expert, offering a unique way to discover the treasures of the Camargue, followed by a traditional meal featuring local flavors.

This equestrian immersion offers a true escape from the everyday, amidst iconic wildlife , wide-open spaces, and shared moments. The stay is self-catering (food budget included), fostering a friendly atmosphere and freedom in organizing your days.

An authentic and exotic experience, ideal for reconnecting with what is essential, in the heart of a preserved and vibrant Camargue.


  1. To ensure the well-being of our horses, we impose a weight limit for each horse (between 55 and 90 kg maximum) . During these trips, the horses carry not only the rider, but also the weight of the saddle, saddlebags containing personal belongings, and the day's feed. The horses' carrying capacity is equivalent to 15% of their weight, including rider and equipment. Respecting this limit guarantees that our horses remain in good condition throughout the adventure.

  • A legendary raft trip and a typical meal featuring local flavors
