Ranch in Macedonia Offers Hippotherapy with Horses and a Pool

Ranch in Macedonia Offers Hippotherapy with Horses and a Pool

Hey everyone, do you remember our story with Marija Duda? The girl who returned from the USA to open her own ranch in Macedonia and offer something new and innovative to Macedonian tourism? If you haven't read it yet, you can do so with one click HERE.


Today, we are happy that her ranch, which is the first Green Comfort Center for animal therapy in Macedonia, is part of the kajak.mk database. What makes us even happier is the fact that the accommodation at the ranch is pet-friendly, uniquely designed, and filled with positive energy. The cherry on top is the pool built in the yard, which guests can enjoy.

Marija says that Macedonia was missing such an offer. Hippotherapy with horses is something that every individual needs, especially those with health problems.

"The energy that horses have is something irreplaceable," says Marija. "For this reason, my husband and I decided to build the ranch 'The Countryside,' which is located in the municipality of Rankovce, 20 kilometers before Kriva Palanka," she adds.

The goal of staying at the ranch is to provide guests with horse therapy, to make all the children who need to feel the energy of the horses happy, and to taste healthy vegan food.

According to Marija, this is also a great place for team-building events and practicing yoga, for which she has a certificate from an Ashram in India.


The region where the ranch is located is ideal for hiking, with visits to St. Joachim Osogovski, which is 25 kilometers away, and the Stone Towers, which are 13 kilometers away. In addition to the horses, the ranch also offers bicycles and cross motorcycles.

As the hosts of the ranch say, pets are welcome because they make everyone happier.
