2018 The Rides Overview
This year 2018 we offer 5 different Weeklong Riding Holidays and our Long weekend programmes.
Equiberia home riding tours are in the Sierra de Gredos, in the province of Avila, in the region of Castilla y Leon, which comprises the old kingdoms of Castile and Leon.
• "The Valleys of Gredos " Week ride
• "Sierra de Gredos Summer ride " Week ride
• "Gredos Escapes " Weekend programmes
The meeting point for all these rides is Madrid.
This region offers a rich variety of landscapes, wild nature, mountains ranges, pristine rivers, rural life and medieval villages. It is one of the less populated parts of Spain, traditionally a cattle farming area, with open land and many trails where one can ride free. Riding a horse in Gredos is just the natural way of discovering the hidden treasures of inland Spain.
If you haven’t ridden with us before, we recommend any of these rides in Gredos, our home. We consider these rides the best introduction to the Equiberia riding holidays.
In 2015 we propose week rides in three other regions of Spain, with our partners, and accompanied by Maria Elena.
• Segovia - Castile
"Segovia: History at a canter" Week ride
"Segovia and Gredos ride" Week ride
• Menorca - Balearic Islands
"Unknown views of Menorca" Week ride
• Seville - Andalusia
"NEW Sevilla Trails of Andalusia" Week ride
"NEW A Taste of Sevilla" Week ride
We plan to explore different areas of Spain, to share with you the less known and best preserved sites of this beautiful country... on horseback. Hope you decide to join us in these new adventures: There is still a Spain to discover.
