Description

The area The Costa da Morte, in the province of A Coruña, is a natural space where the Atlantic shapes a landscape of cliffs, oak forests and rural trails. Its paths invite unhurried exploration, with the sea breeze as a constant companion.

The experience After a natural horsemanship mini-class to get comfortable with the horse, you set off along forest trails and open hillsides. The guide makes stops to explain local wildlife, plants and history. Horses are naturally trained and live semi-free — they respond to communication, not force.
