About this tour
Saddle up for a 2-hour ride through Granada's foothills beneath the Sierra Nevada, working with Andalusian horses on a family-run ranch. Your guide shares local knowledge and equestrian heritage as you navigate rolling countryside terrain. This suits all riding abilities, from confident beginners to experienced riders, and works well for families with children aged 9+. Travel time to the ranch adds 1–2 hours total.

- Explore Sierra Nevada mountain foothills
- Meet ranching families and learn their traditions
- Suitable for beginners and experienced riders alike
- Two ranch locations: 30 or 45–60 minutes from Granada

What to expect
You'll meet your instructor at the ranch, get fitted with a helmet, and spend time getting to know your horse before heading out. The ride winds through Andalusian countryside with views toward the Sierra Nevada. Your guide fills you in on local farming, horse breeding practices, and regional customs as you go. Pace is relaxed and adjusted to the group's comfort. Weekends and holidays occasionally shorten rides to 1 hour (15 euros refund applied). Factor in travel time: 30–60 minutes each way by taxi, Uber, or arranged transfer (65–100 euros, ask ahead).
