Horseback Riding Dunes Madeira Child (5-12 Years)

There are few places on earth where one has the feeling of being precisely on another planet, either because of the characteristics of the terrain, which remind us of those of the Moon or Mars, or because of everything that surrounds it. Not necessarily, but those places are usually found on some islands, where their formation was subjected to extreme conditions.

If one goes to Teide or the area of Cappadocia, in Turkey, you will know very well what I am talking about since both treasure a type of formation strange that teleport us to a parallel dimension. After visiting these sites, it seems that there has been a space-time journey millions of light years, millions of kilometers.

That is precisely what we want to show you, that there are more locations where it is possible to experience a similar impression. And it is not necessary that you go to the other end of the world for it. Above the Canary Islands there is another archipelago, belonging to Portugal, formed by the island of Madeira and Porto Santo strong>.

We are going to go, in an imaginary way, to the second. And we are going to do it on the back of a marvelous equine, possibly the best possible companion when it comes to investigating the most hidden corners of a place. We want to tell you the story of a 60-minute horse-riding route ideal for awakening the senses of the little ones in the house.

First, because the protagonist is the horse and contact with it helps him build confidence, gain self-esteem and learn to respect nature. And second, for the fundamental reason why we started this exhibition: to leave them speechless when they discover the dune landscape that stretches out in the middle of the island. Amazed is the exact word.

We start from our equestrian center, where, first of all, we will give you a helmet for individual use, the corresponding saddle and a horse. staff. The only thing, it is advisable to wear robust shoes or typical mountain boots, clothing according to the activity, pants not very rigid and, in summer or even spring, protective cream against the sun's rays.

With that, I would be ready to start preparing our time machine. And without leaving Porto Santo.
