Description

Conoce uno de los santuarios menos conocidos pero más bellos de Tarragona, y hazlo de una forma totalmente diferente a la típica, a través de una ruta guiada subidos a caballo. Es una excursión hípica muy completa ya que nos llevará alrededor de 3 horas desde nuestras instalaciones. 2 horas serán de ruta a caballo y la hora restante para la parada y el almuerzo. Saldremos encontrándonos, en primer lugar, con el entorno natural de las afueras de Rodonyá. Desde ahí cabalgaremos tranquilamente en dirección al Santuario de Montferri. Daremos un paseo por los alrededores de esta joya arquitectónica, ya que nos mantendremos en los caballos. Seguramente os venga a la mente rápidamente el estilo de Gaudí. Esto es debido a que lo ideó un discípulo suyo para homenajear a la Virgen de Montserrat, dándole una apariencia que nos recuerda a los rasgos que identifican al gran arquitecto catalán. Transcurrida la mitad de la visita, nos detendremos para compartir el almuerzo que llevamos desde la propia hípica para que no tengáis que preparar nada previamente. Regresaremos después a la finca mientras charlamos sobre las impresiones que nos ha dejado esta ruta cultural al aire libre.
