The Experience After a brief orientation and introductory theory session for beginners, you’ll mount a well-trained Andalusian horse to ride through forested paths and cultivated fields. The steady trot and natural sounds of the countryside create a peaceful atmosphere. On the 4-hour route, a stop is included for a picnic featuring local products such as cheeses, cured meats, and wine, enjoyed amid the serene landscape of the Randa Valley.
