Fantastic
Fantastic, fun and safe experience
I love this place. I always book a horseback ride here when I'm in Denmark. The owner and the regulars love the horses dearly, and you can tell they're well cared for (in the way they look and the way they act). They're really getting loved on, and when they're off they're OFF, rolling, frolicking and relaxing in the spacious pens.
I've booked rides with other companies too, but I keep coming back to Amager Voksen because of the atmosphere, the horses, and the friendly and competent guides. I've ridden several of their horses, and it has always been a pleasant experience. I've ridden with beginners and more experienced riders, and my co-riders often comment on the high level of instruction and tips they receive from the guide and owner. Of course, if you're in a 15-person group during peak season, this is not always possible for everyone, but in general they're really good at guiding and helping the customers.
And most importantly, you don't get to ride without going through a thorough safety orientation (stirrups, reins, safety on the trail) and getting an opportunity to ask questions and voice insecurities (I've been on enough group rides there to know that).
I understand there's been some accidents, some of them quite serious. That's really sad and unfortunate! I've had accidents myself on a couple of my rides (falling off, a horse tripping while riding), which is inherently a risk when you decide to get on a horse. Most rides by far are completely drama-free, thanks to the great horses and experienced guides. Whenever something does happen (which it inevitably does with horses and humans), e.g. a horse spooking, a rider falling off, in my own experience the guides and the owner have been fantastic at handling it - helping, calming and reassuring riders and horses, getting picked up and cared for by the owner etc. I always felt - and still feel - completely safe booking my rides here.
If you love horses and nature (and are ready to listen and follow the guidelines to enjoy a safe ride), don't deny yourself this experience. The area is beautiful and peaceful, the guides are very capable, and the horses are LOVELY!
10/10 recommend this place.
