Horse Riding in the Turkomen Steppes
The Turkmen Forest Ride is a unique opportunity to ride the world's original hot-blooded horses, Turkmens - the rootstock of both the Thoroughbred and the Arab - through a part of Iran seldom visited by outsiders. Run by Louise Firouz who, in her 43 years in Iran, rediscovered the Caspian Horse, and who now breeds Turkmens for endurance and performance. - Magic Carpet Travel Ltd., Iran Travel and Tours
