Full description
Discover Montserrat Natural Park from the inside with a beautiful horseback ride.
In 1 hour and a half you'll cover 8 km in the company of an equestrian guide ready to immerse you in nature while you ride along spectacular panoramic trails.
Don't miss it: relaxation is guaranteed!
What we will do
The meeting point will be in Castellbell i el Vilar, Barcelona. We will arrive at least 10 minutes before the booked time.
There we will be met by the equestrian guide, ready to start the adventure with the horses already equipped. Before riding, we will dedicate about 15 minutes to an introductory talk: we will learn how to communicate basic commands to our four-legged companions.
Once everything is ready, we will get into the saddle and start the route, which covers an 8 km stretch of the Camino de Santiago. As soon as we set off, still inside the estate, we will be able to admire the ancient hermitage of Sant Jaume de Castellbell, a 12th century construction.
The route will take us along gently sloping dirt tracks, combining flat stretches with small ascents and descents, always with the imposing silhouette of Montserrat as a backdrop. Along the way, you will cross meadows, woods and a small stream before reaching an elevated area surrounded by cereal fields. From this natural viewpoint we will enjoy one of the most spectacular views of the mythical Montserrat Mountain.
We will finish the experience returning to the ranch, with the memory of an experience in the middle of nature.
The activity will have a total duration of 1 hour and 45 minutes, of which 1 hour and a half on horseback.
