TRAVEL NOTES ...
... Riding holidays at MAJORCA...

 

In June 2011, I spent some days at the finca which one we work since many years for our equestrian stays and riding trails at Majorca.


I did " Monasteries road" and thanks to this itinerary I could have a look on the other trail "Natural Parks". Indeed, one day is very similar since we arrive on the beach to reach the monastery we are going to visit.

I hope you will enjoy this photos. Have a good time
Laurie

PHOTO ALBUM OF OUR HORSE RIDING TRAIL

 

Far from tourism area, another Majorca exists, more authentic and rural. It's precisely this one that we discover with our trails.

The Finca and the breeding of Pure Spanish Breed horses


After one hour by road, I arrive at the fincasurrounded by large green lawns and fields.
There all day rides begin and we come back there alose for the night to take advantage of the accomodation and the cooking.


The finca is completly dedicated to horse and that's why the decoration is so specific. It's a simple place but very pleasant where riders like to come back year after year.



 

 

 


When we come back at the finca on evening after the trail, we can have a rest near the swimming pool on the large terrace, read a book, walk along the foot path around the hotel...

And non-riders coming with us can rent a bike to take advantage of this stay to discover the countryside...



 

 

Monasteries Road


Meeting at 8.30 am front of the reception desk to reach by car horses that are waiting for us at the departure point.

The driver ends last prepartions and we go with equiped drag for lunch. Toilets are inside like in a caravan.

A perfect organization!

The day before, we did a one hour trail around the finca for a test ride to see if we were mached with the right horse. So Nevado waits for me, attached in the branch, to go through the plain.

Firstly we go towards an area which is made up of a series of farms and located on the plains of Mallorca.

It's so peaceful !


 


 





Then we start the climb through the pine covered mountains toward the Bonany Santuary, where we´ll meet our support vehicle for lunch time.

 



 

After the visit of manastery we have to go. Nevado had the good idea to roll himself on the floor. So I brush and saddle him before we go down the mountain to get bak the depature point.



 








For this stray you need a good stamina mainly for the day where we go to Hemitage Monastery since we have to walk 20 minutes (one way and return), leading our horse towards the montain.



 

Would Nevado like to visit the monastery before to go back?


 

Natural parks trail

 


The ride occurs along the coast into a natural park.

Beach, pine trees, sea and calanques are landscapes today.

It's a pitty the sun was not there on morning !





 





 


 







Ride with sun is more pleasant, espacially in Balearics...

On afternoon, we finally appreciate landscapes and gallops under sun shine.




 



 







Our guide is always in a good mood that it is windy day or under the sun.




 

Everybody into the truck ! We go back to home after this long day on horseback.
