Riders will delight in a horse riding holiday in Ecuador.
Ecuador is a magnificient country in South America. Although small by Latin American standards it offers an incredible diversity of landscapes making it ideal for combining a once in a lifetime horse riding holiday with a non-riding extension. The avenue of volcanoes in the mighty Andes is home to the world's highest non-extinct volcanoes and makes for magical horse riding. Then you can take in the incredible Amazon jungle, or the swirling cloud forest which is a paradise for birds and bird lovers, or perhaps a relaxing stay on the beautiful Pacific coast or - surely the icing on the cake - the truly magical Galapagos Islands. How can a single country hold so many jaw dropping locations and experiences?
Ecuador spans the equator and visitors delight in having a photograph taken with one foot in the Northern Hemisphere and the other in the Southern Hemisphere. It has land borders with Peru and Colombia and a superb Pacific coastline.
Horse riding is based at haciendas. These are the equivalent of family run ranches or farms. Accommodation and food are normally excellent and apart from horseriding you may be able to participate in the day to day farming. The surrounding scenery will always be magnificent.
We have created two horse riding holidays exploring the Andes Mountains. The first riding holiday offers the comfort of accommodation at a hacienda in the highlands, surrounded by the Andes Mountains and includes a mini trail to the traditional Indian town of Otovalo. The second riding adventure, a camping trail to Pinan Lake, is a more challenging horseback holiday aimed at adventurous travellers. See the remote beauty of the Andes up close.
