Gran Canaria Horseback Riding – Pick ups in Maspalomas, Playa del Ingles, Meloneras, San Agusting, Puerto Rico, Amadores, Mogán…
Enjoy a horse riding excursion in Gran Canaria and get to know some of the wildest and most beautiful areas of the island.
Given the excellent climate of Gran Canaria, you will be able to enjoy riding a horse at any time of the year, enjoying nature and traveling along trails that lead into the mountains.
Your horse riding experience doesn’t matter, since we choose the horse and the route suitable for you. We have different breeds of horses and will select one that suits your height, weight and experience.
For your peace of mind, the routes are done accompanied by an experienced guide. For groups that have 4 to 14 riders, you will be accompanied by 2 guides.
At some sections of the trail, the group will be divided according to experience level so that riders with more experience can trot or gallop, while those who are novices can continue to ride in a more calm manner.
Do not worry if you have no experience. The horses are well behaved and the guides will give you prior instruction in handling the horse so that you can peacefully enjoy the route through the mountains.
Carpachio, Blanca, Ordinario and Luna are some of the more than 20 horses that we will choose for you and from whom you will be able to contemplate marvellous views at Playa del Inglés, Maspalomas and the lovely Barranco de la Negra.
Throughout the year we leave 3 times a day, at 10:00, 13:00 and 16:00. And in the summer months, with longer days, we include an additional departure at 18:30. When making your reservation, indicate which time you prefer in order for us to schedule accordingly. Enjoy an excursion in the morning, afternoon or evening with a beautiful sunset.
In short, we will do our best so that once the horse ride is finished and you are back at your hotel, you will have the feeling of having enjoyed one of the best moments of your holiday in Gran Canaria.
