Expert Recommendations

Wear comfortable clothing and closed shoes with a small heel (so your foot doesn't slip through the stirrup). Layer up: the Pla de l'Estany can be cool in the morning and warm at midday. Bring a small backpack with water and sunscreen. If you have experience with a specific riding style (dressage, western), mention it when booking.

About the Area

The Pla de l'Estany is an inland comarca of Girona centred around Lake Banyoles, Catalonia's only natural lake and part of the UNESCO 'Ramsar' Biosphere Reserve. Day route destinations combine lakeside, volcanic and medieval landscapes: Besalú preserves the only medieval bridge with a Jewish mikveh in Europe; Maià de Montcal is in the Volcanic Zone of the Garrotxa; Campmajor lies within the nature reserve.
