Full description
Who said you had to be an experienced rider to enjoy the rhythm of the countryside?
Enjoy a private experience lasting a total of 2 hours in Alicante, where you’ll go on a 70-minute horse ride fully tailored to your level and that of your group. You’ll set off along a refreshing trail in the shade of the reed beds, following the old course of the River Guadalest until you reach a reservoir, whilst admiring the Polop mountains on the horizon. A perfect way to breathe in the fresh air, connect with the animals and switch off from the daily grind, surrounded by nature.
What we will do
You’ll meet up 30 minutes before the agreed time at the meeting point in Callosa d’en Sarrià, Alicante. On arrival, the team will welcome you and introduce you to their 11 horses and ponies, telling you their names and personalities so that you can choose the ideal companion for your exclusive ride.
Anyone who wishes to do so can help groom and prepare the horse before the saddle is fitted. You’ll then receive a brief theoretical and practical briefing to help you feel confident, adjust your helmet (and protective vest for children) and get ready to set off.
You’ll set off on a flat, gentle ride lasting approximately 70 minutes along a livestock track. You’ll venture along a cool, shaded path lined with reed beds, following the old course of the River Guadalest until you reach its artificial reservoir, from where you’ll be able to admire the Polop mountains in the background.
On your return to the centre, photos and videos will be taken of you with the horses to capture the moment. In total, you’ll enjoy a 2-hour private experience full of tranquillity and direct contact with nature.
