SADDLES / TRAIL RIDING
Discover our saddles for trail riding.
Saddles designed for use, stability and carrying equipment on the trail.
Rooted in long-distance horseback journeys
My approach to saddlery comes from long-distance horseback travel: I have travelled for up to four consecutive months with my mules, carrying supplies for ten days of self-sufficiency.
This use requires particular technical choices in structure, stability, durability and carrying capacity.
I do not aim to make a universal saddle. I make a saddle suited to its intended use.
Trail riding, trekking and journeys need preparation
A trail riding saddle starts with preparing horse and rider. Training, outdoor experience, equipment and self-sufficiency are part of the project before choosing a model.

CHOOSING A TRAIL SADDLE
Explore each saddle.
Each model has its own page. We choose its configuration for the horse, rider, terrain and planned load.
A configuration for your project
We assess the horse’s conformation and history, rider, route, duration and equipment carried. The Boisflex-Lin tree provides a stable supporting structure. Panels and shims allow some adjustments according to observed changes.
