Information
Riders registered online for this ride via the website. from Puur Terschelling. A calendar showed all rides scheduled for the selected day. Guests paid directly online and received a ticket for each ride.
The group consisted of 3 riders plus the guide. The guide carried a first-aid kit.
Stable
The farm was clean and painted black, matching the Friesians. The horses spent their free time in a paddock. Some horses might have been in a smaller paddock shortly before the ride, where hay was available.
Arrival
Upon arrival, two Friesians were waiting at the covered tying area with bridles for the ride. On this day, the ride took place as a private ride.
Trail Ride
The ride started immediately on sandy paths through the dunes. Our first trot was in the dunes. The ride continued through the forest into the dunes, then on to the beach. At the beach, we soon entered the first canter. We cantered twice along the long, wide sandy beach. After leaving the beach, the ride continued through the dunes and back to the farm.

After the ride
Back at the stable, we dismounted. The staff tied the horses at the covered area to unbridle them. The horses were rewarded with food before returning to the paddock.
Photos
During the private ride, we had photo breaks on request, including in the forest, on the beach, and in the dunes. For the photos, I handed my phone to the guide.
My Review
I really enjoyed the ride. It was something special to ride a Friesian bareback on the beach. The horses were well cared for, and the ride was a lot of fun.
