Vicaf

Vicaf is more than an association, it is the lifestyle that we want both people and our favorite animals to adopt: horses. We consider that the relationship between both parties is beneficial in every aspect, so from our center located in an idyllic environment that benefits such activity in the Sierra de Chiva , we invite everyone to come and discover a passion that will not abandon them thanks to the special connection that they will establish with our animals.

Through our different activities we give the opportunity for horses that have been abandoned and even mistreated to interact with humans through:

• Birthday celebrations for all horse lovers who want to have a different event surrounded by our equines.

• Playful activities and summer camps , where children will learn the importance of respecting nature and those who reside in it while having fun.

• Riding lessons where you can learn different techniques from the most classic to the newest.

• Different routes on horseback through the Sierra de Chiva.

Our horses live in freedom and in a herd, being surrounded by nature and complete tranquility, so they are friendly with people, sharing peace with everyone who comes to enjoy a different day.

Declared unconditional fan of horses, nature and everything that has to do with a different day? Take the opportunity to go on the horseback riding full of surprises that the Vicaf association organizes around the most beautiful places in their surroundings.

In the mountains of Chivas , very close to Valencia , there is a center for equines with very special care, since all our horses live in almost complete freedom, without any kind of submission on the human part, which is summarized in a pleasant and affectionate treatment by these with all the visitors who come to our tours.

If you are interested in the care of these animals, the way of life, their needs and the right environment for them, this is your place. On the routes you will be accompanied by a rider who will give you the necessary indications so that you learn everything you need about this fascinating variety.

On the way you will enter a place with paths full of vegetation and streams that you will cross riding on your horse that will allow you to get to know our surroundings more closely while enjoying an activity in which you can also come accompanied by your family.

Check our schedules, as these can be altered by the time of year or the weather, and come and spend a day with the most special horses you can imagine.

At Vicaf we want you to learn to ride a horse in the best way that we know, through the relationship that we manage to establish with the animal, which is essential to get started in the horse riding .

In our natural environment surrounded by the Chiva mountain range, our horses receive the best daily attention so that they are always ready for training at all levels, adapting to the needs of each student. In addition, these work without embouchure ( bitless bridle ) and without horseshoes or barefoot, so they are shown more relaxed in each class and achieving a better riding for both parties.

Our target of students is wide, from children to adults who want to learn riding techniques, regardless of whether you are at a more complex initiation or learning level such as clicker training , natural dressage ...

The classes are individual, always starting with a theoretical learning where we will work on units such as ethology and work on the ground, basic for the practical part and dealing with the horse.

To always ensure the health of our animals, our classes are subject to a maximum of hours a week so do not delay in reserving your place and enjoy a natural and healthy environment in which you will love to be.
