“Out into the Wild”

7 – day – trail rides

A dream come true

“Let yourself be touched by the beauty of the Grisons mountains”.

Connected with horse you ride through the wildness of the Alps. You spend the night under the starry sky and feel the heartbeat of the earth.

You experience riding from the moment, in connection, in dialogue with the horse. You learn that your intuition guides you and you can trust it

The organisms merge.

Movement, breath, perception, unfold from this unity.

Nothing must, everything is.

The interaction of you and your horse, leads you into the lightness of being, into the flow of life, into gentle clarity.

Into your essence.

You are seen and accepted as you are. I share my experiences with you and provide a trusting atmosphere in which you feel safe with what is, and you learn to live your power, the courage in your integrity awakens.

Organization and situation

Variant 1: You have your own horse

Prerequisite: You have your own horse for this alpine season at Pferdealp Muntatsch. It is thus integrated into the herd.

Variant 2: You do not have your own horse

You will meet my horses on the first day, one of which will show up as your partner horse.

The “Out into the Wild” Experience

“A dream come true”

During the 7 days of the “Out into the Wild” experience we ride and hike with our horse over alps, over passes, through high moors, rivers and wild landscapes. In the process, your inner nature is nourished and your senses are enlivened.

There will be moments in which we will melt into space and time, glide away, and then be together in pure peace. And share what we have experienced around the fire, observing and integrating the herd.

I open the space for you to nurture your destiny, to dream it into being. This is my destiny and my gift to you.

“Tga Tartaruga” – Alp Flix

Our base

Here you arrive and are accommodated in a twin room. We cook and eat together. There are 3 vegetarian meals per day, the foods are chosen mindfully.

Horse pasture Muntatsch and alpine pastures of the alp Flix

“Your” Horse lives during the summer season on the horse alp Muntatsch and on the alpine pastures of the alp Flix. When you arrive the trail horses are on the Alp Flix.

The horse alp Muntatsch can be reached from the alp Flix on foot and by horse, possibly we will visit it.

Horse equipment

We ride without bridles. Mostly with halters with which you can lead and ride, and which have proven their robustness on trail rides.

The saddles are custom made for each horse and its unique spring trigon suspension ensures the well-being of the horse’s back, the human buttocks and the freedom of movement of the couple. They have been developed by Alfons Cotti since 2016 and tested and refined during all our rides.

Currently developing new: panniers
