Hungary is a country with firmly rooted equestrian traditions.

Among the different horse breeds in Hungary, we’d like to mention the Akhal Teke, which is considered one of the most beautiful horses in the world.

They are known for their beautiful golden coat that has a vibrant, metallic sheen due to the arrangement of their hair. However, at the moment there are only 1250 Akhal-Tekes in the world.

That is why we have contacted the Cseppentő family, who breed Akhal-Teke horses in Hungary.

In this interview, Regő Cseppentő, the representative Ópusztaszeri Akhal Ménes describes the characteristics of this breed and the equestrian activities they offer.
