MK Ranch: Therapeutic Riding and Equine Services

Situated in the scenic Nature Park Vransko Lake near Pakoštane, MK Ranch has carved out a unique niche in providing therapeutic riding programs. Established in 2008 by Mladen, who was inspired by a trip to America and Italy, the ranch is dedicated to creating an inclusive environment where both children and adults can connect with horses.

Our Mission

The primary aim of MK Ranch is to offer free therapeutic riding sessions, making this critical service accessible to those in need, including Croatian war veterans and children with special needs and disabilities. Every program and service we provide is funded entirely through donations, ensuring that participants receive therapy and relaxation at no cost.

About the Ranch

The ranch was fully established in the summer of 2009 and features a variety of horses sourced globally. These horses are not only utilized for therapy riding but also for recreational use, riding lessons, trekking, and competitions. At MK Ranch, the experience transcends simple horse riding; it’s about forming bonds with these magnificent creatures in a serene setting.

Equine Services

In addition to therapeutic riding, MK Ranch offers various services for equine enthusiasts. These include:

Western Riding Style

Our ranch emphasizes Western riding techniques, which differ significantly from the English style. This approach is great for trekking and recreational riding, focusing on the horse's natural instincts and enhancing their comfort and responsiveness.
