client´s Review
……..We had three magical days riding in the fantastic Colombian countryside, stopping for the occasional beer, swimming in a waterfall, or to admire the stunning views. My two girlfriends and I ride regularly at home in Scotland but loved the opportunity to explore this wonderful place on horseback…….
location
The horseback riding will be in the mountains in the Raquira Region(Boyacá state), which is 150 km north of Bogota and it takes around 3.5-4 hours by car to get there. Its altitud is between 2,200 and 2,900 meters above sea level. These region have temperatures between 15 and 22 centigrade during the day.
landscapes
The horseback riding will be on beatiful landscapes that give you a sensational experience in the wildnerss on a tropic mountains, far from the big cities. We are going to ride on small unpaved roads with wanderful landscape and a small and adventure trail until the top of the mountains.
resposible ECOtourism
We are looking to generate a positive social impact on the provinces we visit because we contract local horses and other selected services with local providers, with whom we have an established business relationship for years. We design and lead the private riding tour all the time to maintain the standards of Rivas Ridingcolombia. We have ridden the horses, also we have traveled several times the trails and roads in the region and therefore, we can offer a reliable private tour.
