|  | |  | HORSEBACK RIDING ADVENTURES
"Everything else is just a trail ride..."
We have half-day, full day and overnight horseback excursions available --and a weeklong trail for the ultimate 'vaquero' experience. What about a romantic and unique night ride in town?
All our excursions are very exciting. Throughout our horseback riding excursions we explore a series of working cattle ranches located west of San Miguel. To make matters more exciting, the main canyon of this region runs right through this area. We are the only operators in town to have access into the trails of Coyote Canyon, in the Cañada de la Virgen area, near the Otomi pyramid & archaeological site. | |  |
| | | |  | | We explore these ranches, prairies, and canyon, on horseback as extensively as time permits us, and the scenery is just breathtaking in every direction. At scenic rest stops along our journeys our great cowboy chefs prepare your delicious ranch style meals right on the campfire.
Our horseback riding excursions are exciting and rugged yet can also be tailored for families with small children or for seniors who would prefer a slower pace. Our youngest client, on an overnight horseback riding adventure, has been 1 & ½ years old; our eldest guest, 83 years young. No riding experience is necessary for horseback adventures, and all ages are welcome. |

We recommend wearing comfortable laced shoes or boots (no flip-flops or sandals), long pants, long-sleeve shirt or light jacket, sunblock and a hat. In longer excursions –if the weather abides– don’t forget the swimming suit, as well as warm and extra clothes for the overnight trips.
We have a 4 PERSON MINIMUM on our horseback riding excursions. Contact us with your available dates so we can join you with a group or if you prefer you can have a private ride covering the cost of an extra rider.

Of the activities that we manage, the one that kids tend to enjoy the most is the full day horseback riding excursion: the perfect adventure to share with your family! This option takes about 8 hours from San Miguel and back. The difference between our half-day, full day and overnight excursions is that our full day and overnight excursions have additional activities included, like milking, cheese-making, visiting with the ranch animals (goats, rabbits, turkeys, pigs, horses, etc.), extended rides, hiking, swimming, cattle-herding, galloping and roping lesson. COST: $145 USD / person.
Add rappelling off a 120 foot sheer cliff for a grand finale for only $35 USD / person.

The next morning, try our most exciting adventure: rappelling down the cliffs of the canyon (add $35 USD / person) and get our hot springs package for a full day of excitement and relaxation (add $35 USD / person). COST: $200 USD / person. | |  |

This adventure will take you accross the outstanding sierra or mountain range that once crossed on horseback the Mexican heroes of Independence, between the towns of Guanajuato and San Miguel de Allende.
It’s 6 days on horseback and 5 nightscamping outdoor in the Guanajuato mountains –all the equipment is provided to guarantee a deep and resting sleep after riding for 3 to 6 hours a day. Once at the camp, you may spend the rest of the day still riding, if you feel like it, or either exploring on foot the mysteries of that historic land such as rivers, waterfalls and a hidden graveyard where the runaway revolucionarios that stayed hidden from the army in those mountains where buried., along with their treasures…
Contact us if you're interested in the weeklong trail so we can send you a DVD with photos & videos from one of these excursions. |
