Morning mist rises slowly over the green valleys of Costa Rica, and somewhere in the distance a horse’s hooves break the quiet. This journey follows old trails used by local vaqueros, crossing volcanic foothills, rivers, plantations and wild coastline — a route where nature still sets the rhythm of the day.
Your ride begins in the lush landscapes near Turrialba, where strong Paso Costarricense horses carry you through sugar cane fields, coffee farms and rainforest valleys alive with toucans, butterflies and the deep call of tropical birds. Trails lead to the sandy banks of the Reventazón River, waterfalls hidden in the forest, and panoramic hills overlooking Lake Angostura. Along the way you meet local families, taste organic coffee, and discover the traditions of Costa Rican horse culture. Later, the journey continues to the Pacific coast, where long beach gallops at sunset and coastal rides across the Nosara Peninsula reveal another side of the country — open skies, ocean wind, and endless sand.
Accommodation are a historic colonial guesthouse, eco-decks open to nature, and a seaside hotel along the Pacific. With experienced multilingual guides, hardy horses, and carefully chosen routes far from tourist crowds, this ride offers a rare look into Costa Rica’s landscapes and traditions. Join the adventure and ride from the mountains all the way to the Pacific Ocean.
