Kesuma Stable

Kesuma Stable is located in Semenyih, approximately 40 km away from KL city center.

The stable was founded by Suhly and Ina, a lovely couple back in 2021.

They started off riding horses as personal hobby many years ago.

At the point of writing, the stable already has 6 beautiful horses, where 5 are mares and 1 is gelding.

As you enter the stable, you will see a big arena on your left.

The arena is often use for horse back archery practice and also for basic riding lessons.

As you move in further, you will see the stables where the horses live.

Say Hello to Puteh, Shifa, Qaisara and Nina!

Further in, you will see 2 more horses.

They are Rose (left), a mare used to live in MAEPS that has a private owner and Gunther (right), an ex-race gelding that is going through schooling again.

Puteh is one of my favorite horses in the stable with a little bit of naughty character but has shown a lot of improvement in the recent weeks.

Saddles hanging next to Puteh’s box.

There is a feed area where the food and utilities are. Pretty neat!

There is a washing bay that can fit up to 2 horses at one go, with rubber mat to avoid being slippery.

The tack room also has fridge that keeps cold beverages for riders. Riders can purchase the drinks at an affordable price.

Algontory Trail Ride

Since my last visit to Algontory Stable riding in the arena, Algontory trail ride is now open for public.

We have a large group, total of 8 horses hacking out.

After a short briefing, we headed out with Afiq leading the way with his beautiful grey horse named Snow.

We trotted along the village for about 1 km before entering the trail on the left.

Off road – entered into the track.

The views between the ears in the track. Plenty of green and relaxing sceneries.

There are a fair bit of steep uphill cantering in this direction.

And you will get fairly nice view from the top.

We spent some time taking photos at the top of the hill.

Everyone was taking a break. The Algontory crew members was thoughtful enough to bring some mineral water bottles for the riders to drink.

Posing for photos after tiring ride to the top of the hill.

It was approximately 12km to complete the Algontory trail ride.

In the last 2km, we cantered on the road circled around the village.

Algontory team is generous to prepare nasi lemak, sambal and fried chicken for us as breakfast after burning the calories.

We cover approximately 12km in one and a half hour.

Algontory trail ride offers a good challenge for the experienced riders. It’s been a while since I last had such an exciting ride with the team!
