Horse safari tour in the highlands of the Taurus Mountains! Let's go horseback riding in the Taurus highlands!
Every year, visitors come from all over the world to watch the freely roaming horses in the region where the Taurus Mountains cut the Mediterranean and Anatolia like a knife, and on the Eynif Plain, which is at an altitude of 1000 meters and covers an area of 90,000 acres.
The number of horses that the residents of the region, who make a living with agriculture and animal husbandry in the plain, have increased over the years with the spread of mechanization in agriculture.
Yılkı horses are around 1,200 in the Eynif Plain. Domestic and foreign visitors see the foals with their families. About 50 puppies join this number each year. The numbers are increasing every year.
The very healthy appearance of the horses, which are the subject of various documentaries and which photographers come to the region to view, further increases the interest in these very interesting wild horses of the Taurus Mountains.
Experience a wonderful day as you step out of the classical tourism in Antalya and explore the habitats of the Yılkı horses on horseback. See the beauty of this magnificent plain and its horses up close. Perhaps you have never come across such free-roaming horses in your life. Experience a truly engaging and exciting day.

Hello Andrea Midjord, Thank you for reaching out to us. Unfortunately, we do not have any tour plans for the end of September to the Taurus Mountains plateau, where approximately 400 wild horses live at an altitude of 1000 meters. We can arrange a private tour for 2 people, but please note that it will be quite expensive. This is due to the fact that we transport our horses in special cabins from a distance of approximately 60 km to the plateau. We recommend our highly popular horse riding tour on Side beach instead. Best regards, Vigo Tours.
Hello, Thank you for contacting us. We do provide pick-up and drop-off services at Orfeus Park Hotel, which is included in the price. As of today, there have been no participants who have requested or registered for June. We will notify you when this changes. Best regards, Vigo Tours
