Information
Riders could register by phone or WhatsApp. The owner of Rancho Bonanza asked about each rider’s experience. Long pants and sturdy shoes were mandatory. Helmets were available free of charge on-site. The ride was paid in cash.
Stable
Almost all riding horses lived together on a paddock field with 24/7 access to food. The horses stayed in a herd. Some horses were kept in paddock boxes near the stable, also with 24/7 food available. The owner made sure the horses’ workload was evenly distributed.

Trail Ride
At the start, we crossed a busy road. A staff member, wearing a safety vest and holding a stop sign, stepped onto the road to stop the cars. This allowed all riders to cross safely and head into the forest. On the way to the nature reserve, we crossed two more quiet roads.
The path led us through a parking area and then deeper into the nature reserve. The ride passed by the bay of “Cala Agulla,” where riders could admire the sea from horseback. Riding directly on the beach was not allowed between April and October. The route continued at a walk along rocky trails within the reserve until we reached a triangular-shaped path.
From there, we followed the same route back, passing Cala Agulla once again. After crossing the parking area, we returned through the forest and back to the stable.
After the ride
Back at the stable, the staff untacked the horses and returned them to their paddock.
Photos
A photo break was possible upon request.
My Review
I really enjoyed this trail ride. The area was stunning for horseback riding, with plenty of variety and beautiful views. The horses were well cared for, and the team made sure everything was well organized.
