Horseback riding route through the Montserrat Massif 1 hour

A horse excursion is always an excellent plan to do something different and enjoy nature, but when the setting in question is the spectacular Montserrat Massif, the plan becomes on one of the best outdoor adventures you can have. Not only will this equestrian route that we propose for 1 hour, in afternoon time enrich you visually, but you will also be truly impressed upon discovering that this orographic jewel is located less than half an hour from the streets of Barcelona.

To do this you just have to go to our ranch located in Castellbell I El Vilar. More than 5 hectares less than 4km from Montserrat where our horses reside freely to show their best side in each of the outings we do.

You do not need to have previous experience riding a horse and anyone over 12 years old can participate in the activity as long as they do not exceed 85kg in weight. Furthermore, the fact that these are routes for a small group of people, a maximum of 6, makes them take on an intimate aspect that will make it even more special when we are jogging along the slopes of the great Catalan mountain.

The fact that this horseback route lasts 1 hour makes it perfect for anyone without experience, but even so, when you arrive at our riding center, the >rider in command of the start will give you some perfect basic notions to become the main protagonist of the day you have to ride.

The extension of the park passes through four different regions: Bajo Llobregat, Noya, Western Vallés and Bages. So imagine the spectacular nature of the route as it passes through paths full of holm oaks, oaks and pines, and even, if you're lucky, you may come across some of the area's native animal species such as squirrels, martens or wild boars, among others. And most importantly, always with Monserrat reigning over us.
