Our Courses

In our week-long courses, you will learn a whole new way to connect to horses, both from the ground and in the saddle. The course format allows our guests to combine leisure and learning. The two different types of courses allow for different riding levels, from complete beginner to highly experienced rider, to learn.

Foundation Course

The Foundation Course provides what the name promises: a solid foundation of horsemanship and riding skills for beginners, nervous riders, or those restarting. If you want to (re)learn correctly from the very start, this is your course.

Develop Confidence

The Confidence Course is your next step after the Foundation Course — more riding, more independence, and more real-world situations, so you leave with the skills and self-trust to handle whatever the trail throws at you.

Dates & Prices

On our ranch, we teach horse-friendly riding in week-long courses, which allow our guests to combine leisure and learning. Especially in spring and fall, the climate in Portugal is very favorable to outdoor activities.

The courses

Our Foundation Course is good for beginners, riders who want to learn Western riding or a more horse-friendly approach to riding in general, people who are interested in Natural Horsemanship, or riders who want to get over a fall or other accident. Our focus is always on a trusting relationship between horse and rider.
