Description

The province of Segovia is located in Central Spain, within the Meseta, the great high plateau of the Iberian Peninsula. It is situated between the provinces of Madrid, Guadalajara, Soria, Burgos, Valladolid and Avila, in the region of Castilla y Leon. These trails will take you on a journey back in history, across open landscapes, ancient woodlands, and through sheltered river valleys. What makes this ride so unique is the ability to combine amazing historic sites, accessible on horseback, with the open and unspoilt Castilian countryside which is just ideal for riding. Truly, you will discover history whilst at a canter!

From horseback you will discover some of the wonderful and well kept jewels of Spanish history: the castles of Pedraza and Castilnovo; the Romanesque churches of Sotosalbos and Sepulveda; the royal site of La Granja de San Ildefonso, with its grand baroque palace and its beautiful gardens. You will be lead through diverse natural landscapes, travelling from the alpine views of the Sierra de Guadarrama, to the old transhumance trails and the open grazing fields beyond. Along the ancient Valsain forests of pines, oaks, holm oaks and holly bush, where the Spanish kings used to hunt bears and wild boars and finally through the vast grain fields, the Eresma river valley and the gorges of the Duraton river nature reserve.

The terrain is excellent for traversing on horseback and here you will discover the pleasure of a well trained and fit mount, with plenty of opportunity to cover the country at a canter or even a gallop. These can be quite active rides, if the riders wish to go for it, and each one begins and ends in the medieval city of Segovia, World Heritage Town by the UNESCO. The city boasts a magnificent cultural heritage including the colossal Roman Aqueduct from the 1st century AD (one of the greatest in Europe), with 163 arches and 29m tall at its highest point. There is also the Alcazar Fortress, with its stunning views of the city, among some other great attractions.

Maria, the host of this ride, has been arranging trails in the Segovia - as well as many other regions of Spain - for a number of years. She is at home with her guests, and has an abundance of knowledge in regards to natural history and the culture of each region. This truly makes her a wonderful travel companion throughout the holiday. The Segovia rides which were originally also led by Enrique, the owner of the stables in Segovia are now led by his daughter Ana. She too is a knowledgeable, qualified and an excellent professional horsewoman and riding instructor, with a show-jumping and cross-country background. Her brother is an international showjumper.

Ana is a fantastic host a guide and speaks English and French, and Portuguese. Passionate about both horses and her homeland, Ana shares the history and culture of the region while ensuring every rider feels confident and enjoys the experience to the fullest. Enrique, still often joins the group for part of the ride.

Every attention has been given to the detail of these trails, meaning that an outstanding experience can be enjoyed by all. Your hosts will go as far as they can to anticipate every little thing to ensure that you have a wonderful stay.
