Horseback riding tourism is still a relatively unknown phenomenon in Slovakia. The Paper brings overview of the issue of hippotherapy in Slovakia. It also presents landscape-architectural proposal of the horse trail in Nitra region, with the aim to arouse interest in this type of recreation and highlight the harmony between humans, animals, and the nature. The proposed route, with a total length of 63.5 km, connects eight villages and four key ranches, and is logistically designed to allow for shorter, thematically coherent stages. Given its length and the attractiveness of the environment, it is not intended exclusively for riders, but functions as a multifunctional corridor that offers a full experience for hikers as well.
