Excursion for All Levels
Our excursions are designed to be enjoyed by riders of all levels of experience, from beginners to experts. This activity is suitable for both adults and children. While the main route is accessible and common for the entire group to ride together, there are specific areas where more experienced riders can gallop and trot, offering an exciting and challenging experience for those with more equestrian skills.

The Perfect Horse for You
According to your level of experience, height, weight, and age, we will select the perfect horse for you to enjoy your ride to the fullest. Our goal is for you to feel comfortable and secure with your equine companion.
Available All Year Round
The temperate climate and pleasant temperatures in the south of the island allow for horseback riding all year round. Thanks to favourable weather conditions, excursions are only rarely cancelled, on the few days of high temperatures or bad weather that may occur during the year.
Flexible Schedule
We offer three daily departures for horseback riding. You can choose between 2-hour rides at 10:00 or 16:00, or opt for the 1-hour excursion at 13:00.
Spectacular Views
During horseback excursions, you will enjoy magnificent views of one of the most beautiful and lesser-known gorges in the south of Gran Canaria, the Barranco de la Negra. The beauty of the landscape will make your ride even more memorable.
Small Groups
To ensure a personalised and safe experience, our rides are conducted in small groups. This allows for more individualised attention and closer interaction with the horses. Additionally, each group is always accompanied by at least one experienced instructor, who will provide guidance and assistance throughout the excursion, ensuring that all participants fully enjoy their equestrian adventure.
Sense of Peace, Freedom, and Well-being
Horseback riding offers a unique experience of connection with nature and animals, promoting a deep sense of peace and freedom. Interaction with horses not only helps reduce stress and anxiety but also allows you to fully enjoy the present moment. The relationship with these animals can be profoundly therapeutic, fostering emotional and mental well-being. Enjoy the tranquillity of the natural surroundings while creating a special bond with your horse, achieving a revitalising and enriching experience for body and mind.
Pick-Up Service
For your convenience, if you are staying in a tourist area in the south of Gran Canaria, we offer a pick-up service directly to your accommodation. Please check with us if you are coming directly to the El Salobre area or if you are outside these tourist areas.
