Children's Birthday Party with Ponies in Palamós

Context The Palamós Equestrian Center, located near the beach in the rugged Costa Brava region, offers a unique children’s event combining pony rides with gentle Argentine Fabela ponies—a small, calm breed ideal for young riders—with interactive animal care activities and nature-based games. The natural surroundings, filled with bird sounds and the fresh sea breeze, create a peaceful atmosphere perfect for children to explore, learn, and connect with nature in a safe, engaging way.

The Experience Children arrive at the center and are welcomed by experienced staff before taking a 30-minute guided ride on ponies specially sized for their age. After riding, they participate in hands-on grooming and care sessions, feeling the soft texture of the ponies’ coats. Next, they enjoy games using recycled materials and supervised motor skills activities, finishing with a family-arranged snack in a designated celebration area equipped with outdoor seating and shaded spaces.

For Whom This activity is suitable for children aged 3 and older, especially those who enjoy animals and outdoor play. It’s ideal for small family groups or school outings seeking a safe, educational, and fun celebration. Not recommended for children under 3 years old or those who are uncomfortable around animals.

Local Setting The center is part of a local community focused on equine education and animal care. The area values respect for nature and promotes outdoor activities for children, blending rural traditions with family-friendly tourism. Local customs emphasize connection to the land and simple, joyful experiences for young visitors.
