Full description
Have you ever petted a horse until you gained its trust?
Experience a unique 1 hour and 30 minutes experience, where we first share quality time with the horse - feeding, grooming and pampering it - and then ride through the natural surroundings of the iconic Loarre Castle.
What we will do
We will meet 10 minutes before the agreed time at the riding school in Loarre, Huesca. Upon arrival, our guide will welcome us and explain how the activity will take place, designed to enjoy the horse calmly and unhurriedly.
We will start the experience sharing quality time with the horse. Before riding, we will be able to feed, brush and pamper the horse, learning to approach it with respect and tranquility. This first contact allows us to create a special bond, gain confidence and connect with our four-legged friend before going out to ride.
We will then receive a brief safety briefing of between 5 and 10 minutes, where we will learn the basic rules of the ride. Afterwards, the horseback riding route will begin, leaving from the riding school and gradually ascending towards the west side of Loarre Castle. As we advance, the silhouette of the castle imposes itself on the landscape, revealing why it is considered the best preserved Romanesque castle in Europe and one of the most complete fortresses of the 11th century.
When we reach the highest point, we will enjoy spectacular views of the walls and the landscape that opens up at our feet. Then, we will start the descent back to the riding school by the east side of the castle, completing a circular route, quiet and very visual, perfect to enjoy this unique place without rushing.
After an experience of approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, we will return to the riding school with the sensation of having lived a special day, marked by the connection with the horse, the landscape and the calm of an environment that invites you to stay a little longer in your memories.
