Day 1: Fishermen's village El Port de la Selva

When you arrive in the idyllic beach village of El Port de la Selva, your guide will be waiting to show you to your accommodation, a charming little fisherman's cottage. From the terrace, you can look out over the Mediterranean Sea and the surrounding coastal mountains. With the wide range of leisure activities on offer, this holiday is also perfect for non-riders. The guide will inform you about the trail, as the first ride starts the next morning!

Days 2 - 3: Riding by the sea

Our proud Andalusians await you happily in a pasture on the edge of the village. From horseback, you will discover the impressive Cap de Creus, a Natural Park of surreal beauty. The curious rock formations show the influence of the salt water and the strong Tramuntana wind. Along the way, you will discover the different layers of rock that tell of the geological evolution of this region when the African continental plate approached the European one, creating the Pyrenees. Over the course of time, the Mediterranean has carved wild coves into the rock faces.

Like mountain goats, our sure-footed horses climb over the rugged cliffs of the cape. Marvel at spectacular views of the Pyrenees to the west, the Gulf of Leon to the north, the Bay of Roses to the south and the endless sea to the east! In between, there are always opportunities to trot or canter. Secluded sandy and pebble beaches with crystal-clear water invite you to take a refreshing dip in the sea.

After a wonderful day in the saddle, enjoy the sunset on the terrace of the holiday home with a view of the sea and mountains as the evening draws to a cosy close.

Day 4: Fancy something else?

After an enjoyable time on horseback, the riding programme can be extended on request. A further stay in the holiday home without riding is also an option. Please contact us for a customised offer!

Info & Diensten

Kenmerken

Riding through a paradisiacal landscape where the last foothills of the Pyrenees sink into the deep blue sea. The Cross Cape Sea Rides are the perfect programme for anyone who wants to explore the unspoilt Cap de Creus on horseback. Our Andalusians will carry you skilfully over narrow passes, climb joyfully over the rugged cliffs on the Cape and take you to hidden bays that are almost impossible to reach without a horse.

You take care of your own catering and pack what you would like as a saddlebag picnic. Depending on the time of year, do not forget your swimming gear. Comfortable hiking boots may make a short descent in the coastal mountains easier. To provide the trip perfect, we have made sure that you also have time to relax between riding. This means that even less experienced riders will find this trail an ideal riding programme.
