About Dacor

Dacor livestock is a stud farm at the picturesque foothill of Zailiysky Alatau, 12 km far from Almaty, Republic of Kazakhstan.

You feel such uncontrolled freedom that you rush, feeling a free studhorse’s strength, towards strong wind, bringing a spicy smell of wormwood. Or you can just enjoy placative view of grazing horses on the back of magnificent mountains that always look different and unique at any time, in any epoch.

The Nature and the Horse form a perfect whole in this wonderful place called Dacor, which is translated from French as “peace, conciliation, harmony”. Olzhas Suleymenov, a great Kazakh poet, gave such a name to this place.

One of the activities of our stud farm is stock and selective breeding of blooded Akhal-Teke horses. True standout horses of Posman, Gelishikli, Kaplan, Kir Sakar, Karlavach, Peren, Arab, Melekush and other lines have been brought here.
