Trail Description Horse Trail Ride (Rutas y Caballos) is a Spanish company with international focus entirely dedicated to the development of environmental tourism. Our vocation is to organise treks and visits on horseback in a large scope of diverse natural environments, with one key objective: making the most of enjoying nature and wildlife while at the same time respecting it. We offer Horse trekking following the GR-10 route, the legendary trail that forms part of the European long distance path E-7 stretching from the Black Sea in Rumania to the Atlantic in Lisbon, Portugal. The GR-10 path is exceptionally attractive due to its natural environment and offers the best possibilities to those who are looking for authentic internal tourism. Our ambition is to offer you the best means to enjoy and learn about the nature, wildlife and cultural aspects surrounding you while experiencing great adventures on horseback. In one sole trek package we invite you to discover different environments and places of special interest: ride through protected natural reserves on horseback while discovering its wildlife, cross large forest trails, ancient roman roadways and bridges, visit historical monuments and get a taste of local tradition meeting those who live with social and cultural concepts strongly linked to their rich history. The paths and trails we shall follow are rarely visited by mankind: their inhabitants are essentially the flora and fauna. Our guides, experts in local resources, will inform you about the wildlife and the history surrounding the area. And why not expect to get a glimpse of native endangered or threatened animal species such as the Cinereous or European Black Vulture (Aegypius monachus), the Wildcat (Felis silvestris) and the Spanish Imperial Eagle (Aquila heliaca adalberti) who have found a suitable environment and above, all protection in these areas?
