Our Horses
Andalusians
When you look into the big friendly eyes of an Andalusian, with his mane flowing in the warm summer breeze, you quickly fall in love. The Andalusian is a spirited but very graceful and sensible horse.
Historically, the name ‘Andalusian’ dates back to the Middle Ages when the Muslim part of the Pyrenees peninsula, where horse breeding flourished, was called Al-Andalus. The breed is obviously not limited to today's region of Andalusia. However, the fact that important centres of Spanish horse breeding are located in the Southern Spanish region of Andalusia is misleading.
The breeding of the PRE (Pura Raza Española) is extremely strict and the studbook has been managed for a long time by the Spanish Ministry of Defense. Only stallions and mares that are registered here and have completed and passed a licensing are approved for breeding. All other Spanish horses that cannot be qualified as PRE or horses of other pure Spanish bloodlines are called "Andalusians".
Although the Andalusian is a spirited horse, it is also very gentle and reliable. Many riders appreciate the Andalusian because he is very docile and obedient and is a wonderful horse for beginners.
All of these good qualities mean we have, for the most part, chosen this wonderful breed for our trail rides!
