The Cadre Noir de Saumur (Riding School) is unique in Europe, with its 400 horses, extensive stables, five Olympic-size riding schools, and miles of specially laid tracks. Try for a morning tour, which includes a chance to admire the horses in training. During the Carrousel de Saumur, on the last two weekends in July, the horses put on a full gala display for enthusiastic crowds.
