Welcome!

Arola Stables is a private stable owned by Joni Arola. Arola Stables is loated in virtual Central Finland.

The story of Arola Stables truly began in 2019, when Joni Arola purchased an empty forest and farm plot in Central Finland. Since then, construction work has been diligently carried out. Of course, the years of the coronavirus brought their own challenges along the way, but finally in the summer of 2023, the horses were able to move to their new home, to stunning landscapes and impressive facilities by the lake. The ambiance and overall atmosphere of Arola Stables were never compromised at any stage, and the facilities are indeed well-designed with impressive yet functional solutions.

There are two white stable buildings. In addition, the yard area includes spacious outdoor paddocks and lakeside pastures for summer grazing. Riding opportunities are available in all weather conditions. Two well-constructed riding arenas and a spacious, well-lit indoor arena provide a good environment for training. A shared cross-country course for nearby stables is also located within a short walking distance. On the "Stable"-page, you can view pictures of the stable and the yard area.

The activities at our stable

As a private stable, Arola Stables primarily focuses on providing accommodation for private horses and training with our own horses. Occasionally, our riders also travel to competition arenas, sometimes even abroad. In addition to participating in competitions, Arola Stables occasionally hosts horse shows and riding competitions.

Our competitions are always open to everyone. We organize equestrian competitions under the umbrella of the Virtual Riding League (VRL) as well as in a more informal setting. The disciplines vary, including dressage, show jumping, and even eventing.

While Arola Stables does not actively engage in horse breeding, you might occasionally have the chance to observe the offspring of private mares on summer pastures. Some of our stallions are available for breeding at certain times. For more detailed information, it's recommended to inquire directly with the owner of each stallion.

Accommodation for private horses

We rent stall spaces for private horses. Our relaxed stable community welcomes stallions, geldings, and mares alike. Renting a stall space does not obligate the horse owner to any specific level of activity, but of course, if the stall space renter wishes, they are free to organize activities such as training sessions, competitions, etc. within the stable premises.

Included with the stall space from the stable's side:
- Oats and minerals
- Analyzed quality hay (preserved or dry)
- Full-time turnout and weather-appropriate blanketing
- Stall cleaning (unless otherwise arranged)

Each horse has its own paddock, ensuring peaceful outdoor time for all residents. During grazing season, we also offer summer pasture space on our own property. The pastures are divided into various-sized sections. The use of riding areas is also included in the rental price. Horse droppings must be cleaned up if the horse relieves itself in the arena or fields.

We have available stall spaces for rent
