Discover the Charm of La Garrotxa on the Back of a Rescued Horse
Dive into a unique experience in the privileged surroundings of La Garrotxa on the backs of our rescued horses. Enjoy the magic and connection of riding a bitless and barefoot horse, without irons on your feet or in your mouth.
Our activity is much more than a simple route. We will begin by entering the herd of our horses that live in semi-freedom, where we will choose the most suitable companion for each participant. We will brush and prepare the horses for riding, establishing a prior bond essential for an authentic connection with your horse. Horses are very sensitive animals, and this union from the first moment is key to enjoying the route together as a pair.
Once on the horse, you will receive a brief explanation of how to communicate with your companion, in order to have autonomy during the ride through this magnificent environment that surrounds us. The entire route will be at walking pace.
To conclude the activity in the best way, once we arrive at the center, we will thank our colleagues and you will be able to brush the horse once more before leaving it in its field.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
The use of covered sports thighs is recommended.
It is mandatory to wear a helmet when riding the animals. It is recommended that everyone bring their own helmet. Bicycle helmets are accepted. We have the center’s own helmets available for loan during the activity.
