I stayed at the farm with Cristina, her friendly family for an initial period of two weeks (much more to come in the very near future), and I had a wonderful time. They are very friendly, welcoming, and made me feel like really being part of the family, spending time together riding, talking, meeting their friends, or eating delicious and very… read more healthy home cooked meals prepared by Cristina and her sister.

There are more than 30 lovely horses (geldings and mares) and 5 very cute ponies at the farm, and most of them when are not used for riding, enjoy living freely on a large pasture near a creek during the day, and spend the night in a big grass paddock. Most of the horses and ponies are used for walking groups of guests (sometimes large groups of children on summer camps), riding inside arena or out on the trails, or for teaching riding lessons, and there are also some horses staying in pension and retired horses.
Also there are maybe close to 15 large friendly dogs walking freely all over the farm, so you need to be quite confident and make friends with them too. :)

My work was almost entirely horse-related: daily exercising of some of the trail riding horses (sometimes riding together with Cristina and her friends, sometimes riding alone on trails to the Rasnoavei Gorges, or in an outdoor arena), lunging horses, taking guests on trail rides, walking novice guests or children on horses, brushing, tacking, showering the horses before/after rides or moving horses between the day pastures, night paddock and the stables.

I was lucky enough to come at the farm in time for an important horse show, the National Equestrian Festival, held for three days each year near the old Fortress in Rasnov, so I was able to ride at the opening parade through the city, and during the show, which was very interesting and great fun.

Also you will have to really take your time to learn how to identify all 30 horses by name, color and particular marks when they are all together on the pasture and you have to bring some of them in, to know which horse goes in which stall (there are one big and two smaller stables), to learn which saddle and bridle fits each of the riding horses, and of course to get to know their individual character, so I would suggest to take some notes in the beginning...I know I did! :)

All in all, I'm very happy with my experience on the farm, and I'm looking forward to returning to the farm.

A big thanks to Cristina and family, and I hope to see you all again soon! :)

We spent a month at this workaway and loved it (in fact we loved it so much that we're going back for a few days this month)! Cristina and her family were incredibly kind and generous with us, and we were really happy to be helping them with their horses. We stayed at the riding centre itself and enjoyed getting to know all the dogs and horses!… read more

Our stay with Cristina and her family was an incredible one that we will never forget. We felt welcome the moment we arrived and throughout our trip Cristina and her family did everything possible to make us feel at home. Their farm is beautiful, right in the heart of Transylvanian mountains.

We stayed at Cristina’s house in Rasnov, a 6km drive… read more
