Horse-riding
This is a very special place to go horseriding.
Horseriding brings you close to the nature of the pantanal, as this is a very quiet and unobtrusive way of getting around and so does not scare the wildlife away, and also as some of the places where we ride are difficult to access by other methods of transport (especially during the flooding season).
we have a very good group of horses, which we look after well. They are sturdy criolo pantaneiro horses and have adapted to the Pantanal environment over generations. They are cross-bred with quarter horses for stamina and are trained for cattle work. They are very well behaved, and they have a comfortable walk, but they can react quickly if the cowboy needs them to retrieve a cattle head.
We have riding helmets of different sizes and comfortable leather saddles.
