Full description
Between country roads, open horizons and the silhouette of Granada in the background, you will discover that the countryside is best experienced on horseback.
Enjoy a 1 hour ride in the surroundings of Las Gabias, accompanied by specialised instructors and docile horses, perfect for those who are riding for the first time. A simple, safe and scenic ride.
What we will do
We will meet 10 minutes before the agreed time at the finca in Las Gabias, Granada. On arrival, the monitors will welcome us and explain how the activity will take place. We will meet the horses - docile, calm and very easy to handle - and we will put on our helmets before we start.
The experience begins with a brief explanation of about 15 minutes, where we will learn the basics of safe riding: how to hold the reins, how to keep our balance and how to communicate to the horse what we want to do.
Afterwards, we will begin a 1 hour horseback ride through the fields surrounding the estate, on a gentle and accessible route for beginners . We will ride along country roads with sweeping views towards Granada and Montevive, an area known for being home to the most important strontium mine in Europe. Along the way it is also common to see rabbit holes and foxes, as well as enjoying the silence and calm of the surroundings.
The pace is calm and always accompanied by a qualified instructor, who will ensure the safety of the group and will show us how to improve our posture and handling of the horse.
We will return to the farm after approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes between explanation and ride, with the sensation of having enjoyed the Granada countryside in a relaxed, safe and very special way.
