Horseback Riding in Jeddah – In Conversation with Dana Al Gosaibi

Horseback Riding in Jeddah – In Conversation with Dana Al Gosaibi

Horseback riding is a popular hobby and sport, especially for horse lovers and enthusiasts. If you’ve ever seen a horse beauty show or have been to one of the popular Equestrian clubs of Saudi Arabia, you’ll know just how beautiful and graceful Arabian horses are.

Of course, horseback riding is not easy and nor is it child’s play. You can’t just hump onto the saddle and expect to have a smooth ride and no broken bones. It takes effort!

I had the pleasure of speaking to Dana Al Gosaibi, a lover of horses who has been riding them all her life. Based on our conversation, here’s everything you should know about horseback riding:
  1. Always wear a helmet.
  2. Wear fit clothes and avoid any items that might fall off and startle the horse.
  3. Be careful when approaching a horse from the front, especially if it’s known for kicking.
  4. Never jump off a horse mid-ride.

Horses are truly poetry in motion. Teaching children to ride horses and swim is recommended in our religion so don’t hold back. Discover the beauty of horses.
