Description

Los pequeños de la casa quieren imitar todo lo que hacemos los adultos, por eso si vienen hasta nuestro centro de hípica con vosotros, ansiarán poder subir a caballo igualmente. Justo pensando en ellos hacemos recorridos en pony sin salir de la finca de 15 minutos de duración para que tengan una primera toma de contacto con estos nobles animales. La edad mínima varía desde los 2 años hasta los 11, sin embargo, antes, hay que tener en cuenta que el niño debe poder sostenerse sin problema sobre el equino. Lo demás está más que controlado porque el joven jinete no estará solo a lomos del caballo en ningún momento. Será uno de nuestros instructores quien lleve las riendas del pony mientras tiene lugar el paseo. Tampoco irán desprotegidos puesto que les proporcionamos todo el equipamiento preceptivo para que monten a caballo con toda la seguridad: casco y el material básico del caballo. A lo largo de un cuarto de hora podréis escoger uno de los dos caballos disponibles para esta actividad, o nuestro pony Armonía o el pequeño caballo Andy, ambos estarán encantados de complaceros. Son caballos dóciles, entrenados para satisfacer las necesidades de los más pequeños.  Además, cuesta muy poco, literalmente, hacer un regalo como este a los reyes de la familia.
