Healing on Horseback Retreat

Livno, Bosnia



Discover Your Perfect Retreat

Meditate With Horses invites you to a place where time slows and spirit awakens — the wild plains of Livno, Bosnia, just beyond the Croatian border.
Here, more than 800 wild horses roam free across vast grasslands framed by untouched mountains. This is your chance to join them — to ride Western-style through rivers, forests, and open plains that stretch as far as the eye can see.

This is more than a holiday. It’s a return to something ancient, vast, and deeply alive.

A unique retreat for horse, meditation, travel and nature lovers whether you have riding experience or not.
Come ride. Come breathe. Come home to your heart.

7 Days of Freedom, Wild Horses, and Wide-Open Skies


Meditate With Horses invites you to a place where time slows and spirit awakens — the wild plains of Livno, Bosnia, just beyond the Croatian border.
Here, more than 800 wild horses roam free across vast grasslands framed by untouched mountains. This is your chance to join them — to ride Western-style through rivers, forests, and open plains that stretch as far as the eye can see.


The Call of the Wild

  • Each day you’ll have lessons and trail rides, guided by experts in natural horsemanship and Western riding, with the freedom to linger, connect, and ride as much as your heart desires.

 

Meditate With Horses

  • A series of daily explorational workshops that will bring you into a state of gentle union and trust with your horse and prepare you for a full day of sitting with the beautiful wild horses.

 

Evenings at the Ranch

  • Back at the ranch, the days soften into nights around the fire. You’ll share traditional Bosnian meals, cowboy-style barbecues, wild swims, and guitar music beneath a sky full of stars.


The Dalmatian Coast Extension

  • If you’d like to extend your stay for a richer experience, we can help you plan time on the Dalmatian coast — from charming seaside towns to hidden coves and turquoise bays.
  • It’s easy to travel from the coast to Livno, so you can unwind by the sea either before or after your time at the ranch.


The Invitation

  • This is more than a holiday. It’s a return to something ancient, vast, and deeply alive. Come ride. Come breathe. Come home to your heart.
  • Dates available throughout 2026.


The Cost

  •  The total cost is £1500 and that includes everything apart from your travel. We can tell you that flights from the UK to Split are cheap and the coach to Livno is 15 Euros. You will be collected form the bus station at Livno and taken to your accommodation. To book, please pay a 30% deposit and the remainder of the payment is due 30 days before you arrive in Livno.

 

The Accommodation

  • Guests have stayed in a variety of lovely accommodation around Livno. Our favourite is just a 10 minute walk through the forest to the ranch and we use this one for groups of 4 – 6 people. If you are coming alone, you will likely be staying at a smaller apartment around 10 minutes drive from the ranch and a driver will drive you to and from the ranch every day.
