Highlights of the Pyrenees, a magnificent scenic route, in which you will reach heights up to 2800m of altitude. Through its crests, you will cross entire valleys. You will have the opportunity to admire the alpine landscape in areas that are not accessible to vehicles. You will ride through deep valleys and rocky reliefs in which it will seem that you have landed on the moon. You will reach spectacular altitudes where you can contemplate the mountains, a spectacle of nature! This route has a combination of some trots and gallops and some sections in which you will have to walk.

The availability of all programs and schedules is subject to weather conditions. If unfavorable or unforeseen weather conditions arise, efforts will be made to offer comparable riding experiences. The team may adjust or alter the plans but will strive to provide a similar experience.
