Horseback Riding in the Pyrenees



Horseback Riding in the Pyrenees

No wonder this breathtaking mountain range of Spain attracts people from every country, especially for the horseback riding in the Pyrenees. With breathtaking vistas, having a group tour of this topographical wonder 360 degrees round is something not to be missed. The trails that crisscross and switch back provide an experience that no regular vehicle can traverse, and atop a horse, you are taken back in time.

There's also a 30-horse language and horse riding camp in Jaca – Huesca where programs make horseback riding in the Pyrenees region phenomenal, teaching Spanish and equestrian knowledge and skills.

From Barcelona, a small-group day tour can be arranged to take in some of the best sites of Spain. Explore Costa Brava, with its white sand beaches along the ocean waves. A nearby horse riding center offers choice rides on Haflinger and Arab thoroughbreds. A visit here is sure to provide you with quality horsebackriding in the Pyrenees.


 Hiking Paradise

Whether there has been a recent snowfall or in summer, hiking is the most popular activity tourists and locals take on. This can include climbing in the Posets-Maladeta mountains. The peak of Aneto is a challenge to trek; bicycling is also popular.

Water Sports

Canoeing, kayaking and white-water rafting take place on the Aragon River, an activity one doesn't expect to indulge in here and yet, its popularity makes it exciting and fun for the whole family. Day trips aboard different vessels for a cruise are a magnificent way to view the coastline of this beautiful area.

From the Air

Helicopter and hot air balloon tours offer the very best views of the city and the mountains.

Whether to enjoy only horseback riding in the Pyrenees, or incorporate one or more of the multitude of Pyrenees activities, you are sure to experience Spain at its very best.
