Offers of Horseback Riding A Coruña

Horseback riding is always a great plan that allows us to have fun and be in contact with nature in an easy but exciting way and if we talk about La Coruña, even more so. This spectacular province of contrasts is the perfect place to embark on this type of adventure.

With a horseback riding excursion you will put an end to the day relaxed and with the security of saying that you have discovered beautiful and hidden corners that sometimes go unnoticed but that, on the back of the horse you will discover how spectacular they are. It is also the perfect plan if we are a bit tired of the city and need to take refuge from its hustle and bustle in the countryside, as you can find plans for all levels of riding, even for those who have never ridden on a horse!

In La Coruña you can find all kinds of excursions with horses that fit in perfectly with your intentions and your company. For example, if you go with your family and children, you will be able to spend days in this Galician province or live with horses on farms. Although if the little ones are not so young, you can also share an equestrian route with them, as from a certain age they can already ride ponies and enjoy these friendly animals which are not only fun and endearing, but also completely safe as they are pleasant, docile animals who are used to dealing with humans.

However, the province of A Coruña is also an ideal destination for planning an escape with a partner and horses. Its colossal nature gives rise to ancient parks and forests endowed with a certain mysticism that will make us enter into a whole fantasy story accompanied by that very special person. An intimate and romantic plan with which to disconnect from any worries and let yourself be carried away by beautiful trails guided by a rider who will lead the equestrian expedition.

However, don’t expect to ride on horseback excursions in the mountains only, since you will find here also beach areas bathed by the Atlantic and adorned with pine trees, hydrangeas and eucalyptus trees that give any horseback ride on the Costa de la Muerte a completely different feel.

Horseback riding in La Coruña is the perfect plan for which one does not need to learn anything either, because of how so easy and comfortable it is to organise. You only have to worry about wearing comfortable trousers and tied shoes, if possible of the boot type. The rest will be taken care by the equestrian centres, who will provide you with a helmet as well as some advice as a riding class for those who do not usually ride or have never ridden before.

Likewise, and although there are horse routes adapted to all levels, lasting several hours and even for children, who can ride on ponies, an expert rider will accompany you during the journey, acting as the "master of ceremonies" and echoing the culture, tradition and legends that make La Coruña an even more ideal destination.

Regardless of who you come with or the route you most want to enjoy on horseback, absolutely nothing can spoil this adventure and so that you can leave here with the whole plan already laid out, we propose some of the destinations that you will most like for a perfect day of horseback riding.

If you are looking to get to know the essence of A Coruña, Ortigueira may be one of its highest representatives. It is a town, municipality and parish in the middle of the Rías Altas coast that combines the best landscapes of A Coruña. In this region you will find the ideal place to start the route on horseback, either inland through mountains and woods, or along the coast and along the paths facing the ocean.

The parish of Grañas is also another perfect place for a horse-riding route as it is home to an infinite number of passages along the mystical Ponte Segade. A beautiful bridge full of history in the vicinity of the Sor river where you can ride along paths full of oaks, chestnuts and other native flora that make this region so unmistakable.

The municipality of Arteijo is the place par excellence for horse riding on the beach in A Coruña so this is a perfect destination that you cannot miss if you are more of a sea than a mountain person. You can trot along the beaches of Baldaio, Caion or Barrañán and breathe in that unmistakable aroma of saltpetre mixed with eucalyptus that makes the Galician coast the favourite destination for so many people.

A Coruña is a destination you must visit, and if it is on horseback, much better, because the adventure it provides us with, the charming places we will discover, are incomparable. But if you also want to savour it fully, completing a perfect day on horseback will become even more perfect with a tasting of the most typical dishes of this region. We can't think of a better way to get our strength back after a good ride.
