Erik Cooper

Erik Cooper is a 40-year-old professional adventurist and
passionate equestrian, originally from a horse farm in the heart of
Middle America. With a thirst for exploration, Erik has traveled to
some of the world's most remote regions, including Mongolia and
Patagonia, where he has cultivated deep, lasting friendships with
nomads in Mongolia and remote farm owners in Argentina. These
relationships form the foundation of his immersive travel
experiences through Erik Cooper Adventures, allowing riders to
embark on truly authentic, emotional journeys through these
unique landscapes, connecting with both the people and the
animals that call them home.

In addition to his role as an adventure guide, Erik leads
operations for The Equestrianists, the UK company behind the
world’s longest and most challenging horse races – the Mongol
and Gaucho Derbies. His daily responsibilities include planning
races and academies, interviewing riders, and overseeing all
aspects of brand marketing. Through his work, Erik combines his
love for horses, exploration, and adventure with his expertise in
operations, offering unparalleled experiences to equestrians
around the world.
