Children's Pony Ride in Collserola Natural Park

Context The Collserola Natural Park, often called the green lung of Barcelona, offers a Mediterranean forest setting with smooth trails and fresh air. This protected natural space is ideal for family-friendly outdoor activities, featuring specially adapted routes for young children. The pony ride covers 3 km with a gentle elevation gain of 50 meters, ensuring a safe, accessible, and enjoyable experience for little riders.

The Experience Children begin with a warm welcome, meeting the ponies and learning how to feed and brush them, feeling the soft texture of their coats and breathing in the natural scent of the forest. Then, accompanied by an adult, they follow a quiet, peaceful route through the woods, listening to birdsong and the calm, steady gait of the ponies—creating a peaceful atmosphere that fosters a deep connection with nature.

For Whom This activity is designed for children aged 2 to 9 who enjoy animal contact and outdoor nature experiences, always under adult supervision. It is not suitable for children over 9 years old, or for those weighing more than 95 kg, nor for those seeking longer or more advanced equestrian rides.

Local Context Collserola is a highly valued natural area among residents of Barcelona, where outdoor traditions coexist with environmental conservation. Local stables promote respect for animals and hands-on learning, integrating educational and recreational values into every ride.
