The 25nd Cheval Passion horse show will take place from January 13-17, 2010, at Avignon Trade Fair Centre in the Vaucluse, France. Every January, Avignon is transformed into the equestrian world capital. It is one of only three shows of its kind in Europe and undisputedly the most creative!!
The culminating point of the whole show is the Gala des Crinières d’Or. There will be four of these outstanding gala performances in total, celebrating horses and horse-riding, and featuring vastly talented horses, actors, riders and musicians! To learn more, check out the website.
Hidden Trails' nearby Taste of Provence offers many January departures that would coincide perfectly before or after being entertained by the big show! Can't get any better!

The Dubai International Horse Fair (DIHF) 2010 will be held from 18 – 20 March 2010 at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre. It will be the fourth annual exhibition and the largest ever, due to the rapid development and huge growth of the equestrian market in the Middle East. New equestrian projects are being developed, driven by the rapid growth in population and further propelled by the region's heritage as a culture of horse-lovers. Please view the website for more information!
The fair would make an exceptional combination with one of our horseback holidays in the Middle East like our Desert, Nile and Pyramids Equestrain Escape in Egypt or the Across the Wadi Rum in Jordan. Together, a truly exotic, equine filled travel experience!

There is nothing quite like an isolated journey into back-country wilderness, with hardy pack horses to transport your goods where no vehicle support could ever take you. This unique type of travel makes it imperative to pack correctly to ensure the comfort of these hard-working equines who are at your service day in and day out as well as to make sure you are sufficiently prepared to meet the elements of the mountains with your limited cargo space.
Here is a short & sweet description of the quick do's & don'ts of packing for a horse supported trip in the wilderness. Meeting that weight restriction can be tough, but in the end, it's an unforgettable experience, even if you can't pack 10 favorite outfits! Read Preparing for a Horse Pack Trip
