Tips if you are going to do Horseback Riding in Barcelona

Enjoy an exceptional day surrounded by nature and close to Barcelona with the multiple possibilities of horseback riding tours that are available in the capital of Catalonia. With more than 90 equestrian centers, most horseback riding tours in Barcelona are suitable for everyone, including children and non-experienced riders. Depending on the equestrian center, minors will be able to participate from 7 to 13 years old.

In this guide, we will help you to choose an equestrian center. We will also show you the different areas where you can do horseback riding and the available tours depending on difficulty, age and duration.

Live the experience of a horseback riding tour around the Montseny mountain range, which is very close to Barcelona.



We usually recommend experiencing firstly a 1-hour horseback riding tours or at best 2-hour horseback riding tours if you are not an expert rider, especially if you are going with children.

Can children ride horses?


If you want that the little ones have their first taste of horseback riding, they will be able to ride a pony in Barcelona. There are short horseback riding tours where either the parents or the instructor will guide the pony with a string so that the little ones can be safe at every moment. These tours are usually indicated to minors from 2 or 3 to 8 years old.

What areas can I visit on a horseback excursion?


You will find horseback riding tours between 10 minutes and 1 hour of duration in areas like Canoves, Santa Susana, Talamanca, Sant Andreu de Llavaneres, Orrius, Molins de Rei, Sant Feliu de Llobregat, Malla, Olerdola, Sitges, Granollers, Cardedeu, Berga or Sentmenant. And if you want that the little ones have their first living with horses, you will have to move on to Viver I Serrateix, where horses live partially free.

You will find 1 or 2-hour horseback riding tours in Centelles, Sant Cugat del Valles, Les Masies de Roda, Gava, Rajadell, San Cristofol and Valldorix, apart from the abovementioned places. Before starting the tour, you will be given a horse according to your physical characteristics and your experience. The instructor will show you how you need to give orders to the animal, and once you are comfortably seated on the horse, the tour will start. The instructor will guide the tour while telling you what places you are going to see. They will also pay attention to you at every moment.

If you want to complete the experience with a picnic surrounded by nature, you will be able to do it in the area of Montseny, Canoves, el Valles, Collserola or Olerdola.

Are you an experienced rider?


If you are an expert rider, you will be able to choose a longer tour. For example, if you want to experience a 3 or 4-hour tour, you can choose between Batalla de Talamanca, cava de Torreblanca or Caserres tours. To live a complete horseback riding experience, you can visit exceptional places like Montseny, Llobregat River or Sant Cugat del Raco.

Do you fancy a romantic tour?


And if you want to celebrate an event or surprise a special person, we propose you a VIP tour along the Vallforners swamp. It is a private tour where only the instructor and you will participate. You will ride around Vall de Vallforners, the origin place of renowned highwaymen, located in the Montseny Natural Park. The tour has an approximate duration of 6 hours and includes a typical Catalonian meal in a Masía (typical Catalonian farmhouse) and a photographic report of the complete tour. As you can see, a unique experience.

If you want an exceptional plan for the weekend or want to find out new natural places of Barcelona entertainingly and differently, horseback riding is the best option ever. When do we start with the tour?

We almost didn't arrive, but they waited for us at the horse stable. Exquisite treatment. The monitor a crack. My toddler was scared at first and reassured him.

Silvia's experience

Cool! The girl very nice with the little one. They have let the pony comb, take a nice walk in the woods, and at the end of it, paint a horse to make a puppet... great!
