Endurance rides are long trips in the desert in which the riders and horses enjoy when it's performed properly.

An endurance race is an event in which the horse and rider compete together over a marked trail within a specific maximum allowed time

                                                                                    Starting endurance race

The rider has to reach the end of the trip with taking into consideration to keep his horse in good condition.
Endurance races are held in Egypt. Those who don't know think it's simple but it's really not as you have to attain the mission by:

Accomplishing the race by getting to the finish line with achieving the best time and keeping my horse in the best condition.

 
The horses participating in endurance races are examined by veterinarians before the ride, throughout the competition at regular intervals, and after the ride to ensure that they are healthy and safe with no dehydration or limping and that their pulse rate should be under 64 beats per minute.

It's a great job which needs both challenge and experience of the riding techniques and horses capabilities.
 

This can be simply achieved with a lot of training not only of the rider but also of the horse to reach the required fitness for both of them..

This is also one of the services we Stallion Equestrian Center provide to our clients whether to train the horse , the rider or both of them at our branch in Sakkara as we are located close to the desert..
