Ski Joering
The speed of the horse and the sensations of skiing.
The horse replaces the ski lift and your technique does the rest. An incredible complement for an unforgettable experience. Make your first Ski Joering experience during your winter holidays at the Espace Loisirs Mont-Noble in Nax. This unusual activity combines skiing and horse-drawn carriage and is accessible to all. For children, ponies will help them discover the joys of sliding on the snow and why not a possible passion for Ski Joering ?
This activity is available, on request, depending on snow conditions and piste conditions. For all information and reservations, please contact Katia, our specialist.
If ski joering is not possible in winter, Katia Chiron offers horseback riding :
Introduction to the Ski Joering
The loop of about 400m allows you to quickly become familiar with the horse and how the harness works. You can try out a soft harness for slaloming between cones, or you can ride alone and guide the horse with encouragement. Ski Joering or equestrian harnessed skiing is ideal for the contact with the horse, the ski-snowboard course or the more playful side.
Tour in Ski Joering
The specially prepared loop passes through forests and meadows on a circuit of about 3km. New sensations can then be discovered.
Possibility to ride the horse and pull a friend (good riding level recommended).
Possibility to do the loop on a snowboard (good level recommended).
