Pony club la Villette
This was originally a pony club set
up in 1977 when the Parc de la Villette was just a
vast zone of industrial wasteland. From 1978 on, horses
came to complete the activities proposed by the pony
club.
The architectural design of the club breaks off completely
from what we would expect of a pony club. Its geographical
location in the Park right next to the Géode,
the Cité des Sciences and the Zenith reveals
a building which is completely in line with this futuristic
park. Once inside, cut off from the rest of the world,
you find yourself in the true atmosphere of horse
and pony.
70 horses are here to initiate or perfect you to the
skills of horse riding and to take you pony trekking.
From the 3rd term on certain classes are given in
English.
