Moldova is a state in eastern Europe between Romania and Ukraine. Moldova has a size of about 33000 square kilometers and there are about 3.2 million people living in the country. Most of them are living in the larger cities of Moldova. The capital of Moldova Chișinău and the other bigger cities Bălți, Tiraspol, Tighina and Comrat are of course places where you will find a riding stable, a horseback riding school or a horse farm. But riding stables and riding schools can also be found in the rural areas of Moldova.

The climate in Moldova is dry and warm, the landscape is dominated by hills and rivers. Therefore the region is ideal for viniculture and for farming products like fruits and vegetables. So you can go horseback riding as well as in summer also during spring and autumn. There is a new generation of riding schools and riding stables raising up in Moldova. The most well known is called "Sparta" around the capital city of Chișinău. There are not only great horseback riding instructors, who are well known in Moldova and abroad, but there is a great training area for show jumping training and for dressage lessons.

If you prefer to go horseback riding or take horse riding lessons in the rural areas of Moldova, the experience will be good too. Be sure to plan your trip carefully, because in Moldova the traffic infrastructure is not very good. So you can take horseback riding lessons in riding schools around the cities like Chișinău, Bălți, Tiraspol, Tighina and Comrat. But it will also be great fun to enjoy a ride out on horses through the vineyards of Moldova in the rural areas of the country. One thing you can not do in Moldova with horses: You can not go horse riding on the beach at the sea, because Moldova is a landlocked country. On some places there are only a few kilometers between the country and the black sea, but there is no access to the sea from Moldova.
