Arion stablesArion Stables is a business run by a German-Greek family since 2007. George and Zara, motivated by the love for horses, inaugurated Arion Stables which is located in an idyllic location on a hill between the villages of Chersonissos and Analipsi, 2.5 km from the beach.

Arion Stables' premises consist of stables, a small tavern, a children’s playground, 2 riding places and paddock boxes. There are many animals in Arion Stables too. Besides horses and ponies, there are also some goats, sheep, tortoises, turtles, guinea pigs, rabbits, cats and dogs. In addition to this, it has to be referred that George and Zara have rescued animals from starvation and those being ill and they have adopted them – something that proves the love they feel for animals.

Arion Stables offers different kinds of excursions. Accompanied by an experienced rider and riding guide, the riders according to their own tempo can see the beauty of Crete Island. In addition they offer guided adventure rides and of course more romantic ones like full-moon and sunset rides.

Their absolute highlight is a tour called Analipsi beach and Aposelemis Tour.
