Candid Equitation Week

Improve your riding and horsemanship with trail riding in limitless open countryside.
Trail rides are at all gaits with some steep hills, so confidence outside of an arena is a must.
Depending on the day’s trail, rides often include extended periods of trot and canter at a brisk pace through winding paths. These segments require good balance and the ability to ride in a light seat, staying off your horse’s back. Riders should be confident and experienced enough to enjoy this adventurous riding style.

Plan for the week:

The week include horsemanship lessons/ground work, riding lessons as well as lots of trail riding, depending on the interest and needs of the groups.
The weekend is reserved for arrival and departure and we can of course help you with the logistics of travelling to and from the ranch, as well as with planning a stop over in Lisbon or another city.
