Good to know

This trail requires a riding level which allows complete control at all paces, autonomous riders in good physical, well trained condition. We do proceed in a very sportive rhythm, with frequent trots and gallops we aim to cover an average distance of 35 km per day, spending around 6 hours on horseback. In order to allow to each rider an individual speed according to his/her situation, we generally advice gallop sequences individually per rider or by couple.

– Attention! This ride includes a “raid”, an amazing itinerary ! but very intensive riding day with a distance of 65km !!!! –
