In the tropical coffee growing provinces of Risaralda & Quindio, to the west of Bogota.
Full of lush vegetation, fruits of every shape and size, colourful birdlife and charming brightly painted towns. Famous for its wax palms, some of which are 60 meters high, and enchanting colonial towns such as Salento and Marsella you will be saturated by culture, scenic landscapes, flora and fauna. The ride base is a typical 150 year old colonial hacienda and most itineraries include a night or two here, with routes taking you off the beaten track, over challenging terrain into the Andes, stopping to spend the night at remote coffee farms, in village hotels, guesthouses and occasionally in ‘glamping’ resorts.
If you are after an adventure and keen to explore a buzzing, culturally rich and diverse South American country, try this! Rides are for confident, well-balanced riders – although the pace is not particularly fast, you need to be secure in the saddle over a variety of terrain, happy to take what comes, and fairly fit.
Colombia is full of vibrant colour and tradition, best enjoyed by the horses that have so long been an integral part of their culture. This is a way to not only see a part of it, but to be a part of it.
