Nestled above Supetar’s charming center, the Wild Brač Ranch boasts breathtaking views of the Brač Channel and the historic city of Split, making it the perfect starting point for your equestrian adventure.
Meet the Wild Brač family: Animal lovers at your service
The Wild Brač family – Stiven, Sara and Vicko – are animal lovers trying to connect animals and people in the best way possible. A visit to the ranch is a great idea if you’re already visiting Brač, and it will give you an opportunity to meet Oliver the llama and a number of other animals.
However, if you want to experience something truly special during your sailing trip, we recommend swimming with horses. First, the guide will introduce you to horses and give some basic riding instructions, even if you don’t have any previous experience.
Suitable for all ages and skill levels: Experience the thrill safely
The horses are calm and well-trained, and seeing them slowly enter the sea is truly exhilarating. You will get an incredible sense of freedom and connection with animals. This is a 45-minute tour suitable for all ages, and meant for all nature and adventure lovers, or those wanting to try something different while on vacation.
Apart from riding horses in the sea, you can also get an exercise session with personal trainer Petra. This is actually the most popular tour for boaters: exercising and relaxing at the same time, encouraging team spirit and reaping all benefits of outdoor exercise. Petra also comes up with various games to make the tour as interesting as possible. This approach to exercise frees up the body and the mind, enabling guests to enjoy things on a higher level, paired with a beautiful experience of swimming with a horse.
Tranquil groves & dramatic coastlines: Your Brač horseback riding journey
You can also get to know Brač from a different perspective, thanks to relaxing horse-riding tours taking you through olive groves to a beautiful vantage point. More experienced riders can ride to Škrip, the oldest village in the island, home to an olive oil museum, and if you want to trot or gallop through Dalmatia’s nature, we recommend riding to Donji Humac. You can also ride a horse in the manège on the ranch, or just enjoy spending time with other animals.
Finally, it’s important to note that advance notice and reservation is mandatory for swimming, riding and visiting the ranch.
