Beginners
This horse riding holiday is intended for adults and children aged 7 and over who have never ridden or have ridden very little and want to learn the three gaits (walk, trot and canter) in a short time. You ride in small groups, so you get a lot of personal attention. Every day you start the lesson after breakfast in the morning or after a hot meal in the afternoon, and then immediately go on a tour through the beautiful region. You spend an average of 4 hours a day in the saddle. At the end of the week you can ride outside in a relaxed manner and on the last day you can almost certainly gallop on the beach. Manolo also offers a tailor-made program where you can put together your own program.
This course is available in both Cabo de Gata and the Sierra Nevada. The program and activities are identical at both locations.

Many riders know of the existence of Sierra Nevada, and some say they have ridden in the area. But you don’t really know Sierra Nevada until you’ve explored its “Hidden face” with Cabacci! After 30 years of having designed this trail, and enjoyed it with many clients of diverse nationalities, we hereby introduce a new trail that has more cultural and culinary elements, along with good gallops on the gentle slopes and immense plains of the north face of the Sierra Nevada. We will discover the history of the «Moors», who remained in these lands after being expelled from Granada, and we will walk through small towns that still retain their Arab appearance.
