Horseback Riding Tour Monteverde
A calm, guided horseback ride through the hills of Monteverde with panoramic views of the Gulf of Nicoya, ending with handmade tortillas cooked over a wood stove.
Enjoy an authentic, relaxing ride on horseback through the wide-open landscapes of Monteverde. Expert equine guides accompany you the whole way, making this a safe and comfortable outing even for riders with little or no experience.
The trail follows wide, stable paths up into the mountains, where the view opens onto the Gulf of Nicoya, the hills of Monteverde and, on clear days, the Pacific Ocean on the horizon. Saddles are waterproof and ergonomic for comfort along the route.
To finish, you'll make your own tortillas and cook them on a traditional wood stove (fogón), served with a drink.
