This large stable is easily accessible from the city as it is located on the way up to Medeu. Lessons with instructor (and horse!) are available for 5,000 KZT per hour, and there is a new manege for riding indoors. Call Helena (who speaks some English) to organise a lesson with her or one of the other instructors. The stable is open every day and lessons can be arranged during daylight hours. To reach the stables, head straight up Dostyk until you see the sign for Butakofka on the right, then turn immediately left at the fork in the road by the large advertising billboard and carry straight on until you reach the stables. The turning is just before Bellagio restaurant.
