Horse-riding
Fontainebleau, capital of the horse
An equestrian town with its cavalry brigade and base town of the Republican Guard, Fontainebleau is profoundly attached to its age-old traditions and hosts major national and international events throughout the year.
It boasts unique and prestigious equestrian attractions such as the Grand Parquet, an area for dressage and equestrian competitions, the Hippodrome de la Solle (in a green setting and one of the oldest racecourses in France), and the École Militaire Équestre (Military Riding School) in the former stables of the Château, which trains riders and military horses for training and competition.
Riding clubs offer rides through the forest, which will provide fun for the whole family.
