About donkeys

The donkey is far from fool and stupid, as it is often believed. It is on the contraryclever, docile and angaging. It is a model of economy and robustness. Did you know that it can drink only once a day. Fresh grass along the way is enough for him, or you can feed him with 1 kg of grain or 6 kg of hay.

The donkey with its packsaddle on its back, can carry you luggage (up to 40 kg!), either directly fixed on the saddle,or in the large saddlebags we provide.

All our donkeys are trained for touring, they respond to their name, and love company.

Touring with a donkey helps establishing contact with the inhabitants, it stimulates your children to walk. Young children can safely be carried on the back of the donkey, as far as the maximal load is not overpassed.
