Short Riding Break in Barcelona
 On your first day you will arrive in Barcelona (Girona) airport, after which you can either hire a car or taxi or a transfer can be organised to take you to your accommodation (which is 35 mins away). There is a choice of accommodation between a beautifully appointed rural countryside home close to the stables or a four star spa hotel in the nearby town of Sant Ferriol. If time allows you can start riding later today or if not, you will begin in the morning. Day two will start with heading to the equestrian centre, a pick up can be arranged from your accommodation. The centre is located in an area of stunning natural beauty in abundance and is surrounded by mile upon mile of tracks and pathways ideal for horse riding. The centre also offers excellent tuition including jumping lessons and they are able to cater from complete beginners right over to experienced competition riders. You can design your very own riding plan to suit you from lessons, short hacks, half day rides to full day picnic rides. As an example you may like to start today with an assessment lesson to ensure the right horse is paired with you followed by a one or two hour ride out.Beginner riders may like to enjoy a similar riding plan to day two, whilst more experienced riders may like to make the most of the wonderful local scenery and head out for a longer picnic ride.Day four presents a very similar riding plan as available on the previous days of the holiday, yet no less enjoyable!
