Worldwide Structure Of The Equestrian Tourism Sector, Claudia Ollenburg

Claudia Ollenburg

The aims of this contribution are as follows: (1) to introduce the commercial equestrian tourism sector; (2) to outline its relations with private recreational horse riding; (3) to propose a broad classification of equestrian tourism products; (4) to review the structure and principal management concerns of the core equestrian ecotourism subsector, namely multi-day horse treks in remote areas worldwide; and (5) to identify, and perhaps help to catalyse potential avenues for future research in equestrian tourism.
