Horse riding in Can Picafort

What do our customers think of this horse riding tour?:

  Wir hatten keine Erfahrungen im Reiten und dachten die einstündige Tour wäre genau die richtige Gelegenheit. Wir wurden am Hotel abgeholt und wurden zur Ranch gebracht. Die Fahrerin war sehr lieb und sprach auch Deutsch. Der Rancher sprach eher gebrochen Deutsch und ist eine Persönlichkeit, mit der man klar kommen muss. Seine Art ist sehr derb und wirkt unfreundlich. Die Basics fürs Reoten werden an einem Beispielteilnehmer gezeigt. In unserem Fall war es ein Kind, welches den Rancher kaum verstanden hat und vom Rancher vorgeführt wurde. Der Rancher hat dem Kind auf den Po geklapst, um zu zeigen, dass es aufstehen sollte. Der anschließende Ritt durch die Natur war sehr schön und hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht. Eine Mitarbeiterin der Ranch ist vorne weg geritten und hat darauf geachtet, dass alle beisammen bleiben. Die Tiere waren sehr zutraulich und brav. Alles in allem war es ein wunderschönes Erlebnis. Einen Stern Abzug für das unangebrachte Verhalten des Ranchers

  Had a lovely hack through trees to the beach with my 7 year old daughter today. The staff are firm and direct but are clearly on a strict schedule. They looked after my daughter who hadn’t ridden before and checked on her when were I wasn’t close during the ride. I would say the terrain is uneven and there is quite a bit of trotting, which made me nervous for her but she loved it. My daughters review was that it was REALLY good and she now thinks she’s a professional rider!

  Fantastic experience The owner is an absolute star Clearly extremely knowledgeable and devoted to his horses Staff who led our three hour beach ride were skilled, knowledgeable, kind and also very funny We were the most mixed group you could possibly imagine.

  Amazing place, great, well cared-for horses, knowledgeable helpful funny caring staff, we were well looked after Looking at some other reviews commenting on the personality of the owner, if you find him a bit blunt because you speak no Spanish then whose fault is that in Spain. He clearly cares deeply about the welfare of his animals, delivers strong guidance with some humour, if you don’t understand then maybe you need to look for your funny bone

  We went yesterday (28/08/2024) and had a fantastic time. I own 2 horses myself and am an experienced rider. My horse was very forward and when we went for a canter we overtook everyone else at a gallop and had a great time! The trek leaders are very relaxed and let you trot as much as you like and all the horses seem very well cared for (I have high standards). When the horses in front start getting a bit further ahead, the rest of the horses trot to catch up. This make be nerve racking if you’ve never rode a horse and aren’t a balanced rider. My novice boyfriend and my dad have ridden a handful of times so thankfully knew the basics. The staff were very friendly. I would not hesitate to recommend or go back. Thank you.

  An absolute must, beautiful horses that are well looked after and know the route well. The staff are lovely and look after you. The trail takes you through the forest onto the Dunes and then the beach all with stunning views. As a first time rider I couldn't have asked for a more relaxing experience. I would absolutely do this again. Thank you to all the team.

• Beautiful experience

  

  Everyone was friendly helpful and the excursion was beautiful the trails were secluded once you were off the main roads. The horses are stunning and well trained. Perfect for beginners.

  Had a decent 1hr ride out to the beach and back.

  As a horse rider with experience I was treated with respect from the owner and staff at the ranche. However, as other reviewers have stated the male owner does shout at the inexperienced I believe this comes from caring for his horses ¬ wanting their mouths to be pulled on or them being kicked. which is to be commended. It is unfortunately his mannerisms that could cause offence he is very loud, and often misunderstood because of language barriers which led to more shouting from him. The horses know their job very well and will automatically trot to close any gap established between horses, for a complete beginner I believe this caused fear and was mistaken for the horse 'running off', & the rider would instinctively pull the reins. I had a good ride and enjoyed my experience with the opportunity to canter. I found the owner to be a character but you need to really listen to what he is telling you, he is clearly passionate about your heels being down and is very vocal...be prepared!!
