A Journey to Remember

As a travel writer and a mother of three, I am always on the lookout for family-friendly adventures that offer both fun and learning opportunities. When I heard about the Private Horse Riding Route in Doñana Natural Park, I knew it was something I had to experience. The promise of connecting with nature while riding an Andalusian thoroughbred horse was too enticing to pass up.

The day began with a convenient pickup from Seville, which was a relief for someone like me who often juggles multiple responsibilities. The drive to Villamanrique de la Condesa was smooth, and the anticipation of the ride ahead filled the air. Upon arrival at the equestrian center, I was greeted by the friendly staff who introduced me to my horse for the day. The connection with the horse was immediate, and I felt a sense of calm and excitement as we prepared for the ride.

Embracing Nature’s Beauty

The ride through the Dehesa Boyal was nothing short of magical. The landscape was a breathtaking blend of Mediterranean flora, and the gentle rhythm of the horse’s gait made it easy to lose myself in the beauty of the surroundings. As we rode, our guide shared fascinating insights about the region and the horses, adding an educational layer to the experience that I knew my children would have loved.

The two-hour ride was a perfect length, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the natural environment without feeling rushed. The horses were well-trained and responsive, making the ride enjoyable for both novice and experienced riders. It was a reminder of the simple joys of life and the importance of connecting with nature, something I always strive to instill in my children.

A Seamless Experience

One of the highlights of the day was the seamless organization of the tour. Despite a minor traffic delay, the facility ensured that everything went smoothly, from the pickup to the drop-off. This level of service is something I truly appreciate, especially when traveling with family, as it minimizes stress and allows us to focus on enjoying the experience.

Reflecting on the day, I realized how much this adventure had to offer for families. The combination of nature, education, and relaxation made it an ideal outing for children and adults alike. It’s an experience that I would highly recommend to any family looking to explore the beauty of Spain in a unique and memorable way.
