horse riding madrid

I have horse back ridden all over North and South America through some beautiful sights, but I must say the views Mariano showed us on our 4-hour ride were incredible. It was made better by his kindness in picking us up at the train station, the simple yet delicious picnic lunch eaten on the trail, and the calm friendliness of his horses. We were impressed off the bat when we arrived at the farm and all the horses and his two dogs flocked to greet him, it showed how well he treats his animals full of love.

I recently booked a 4 hour ride with Horse Riding Madrid. It was a once in a lifetime experience. The horses were wonderful. Extremely well mannered and easy to handle. I rode a horse named Carrabatto, a big Andalusian, and he was a complete gentleman. Mariano, the owner, was very accommodating to us. He picked us up at the train station even though we were late. The scenery on this excursion was out of this world. We saw Eagles and a fox and the country side was beautiful. The light lunch was perfect. I would highly recommend Mariano's facility. I have horses of my own and it is always nice to see someone who does this for a living, like Mariano does, and has healthy and happy horses to ride. Next time I am in Madrid, I will do the 3 day excursion. I'm sure that will be an even bigger blast than the 4 hour ride.

I had two wonderful days out with Mariano on one of his quality horses. Mariano was helpful about suggesting suitable trains. He picked me up from the station and then took me on a fast and varied ride along sandy tracks through woods and up into the hills. The views across to the Escorial palace and up to the mountains were spectacular. Although I am an experienced rider it is clear that any standard of rider would have an enjoyable time. It is really unusual to find such a good riding experience so near to a big city and Mariano is a highly accomplished and professional horseman able to tell you many interesting things about the area.. After working hard all week I really appreciated the peace and tranquility of the area and so immediately booked my second trip a week later

I went horseback riding at jarahonda with my sister and my mother when i had a family vacation in Easter 2014. We had a 3,5 hours trip at a very reasonable price. Mariano (the owner) was very friendly and talkative, and he picked us up at the trainstation for free. The whole riding experience was Nice. The landscape was breathtaking and the horses very slightly above avarage compared to other rental horses i have seen. Overall it was wonderful and i would not hesitate coming back whenever i go to Madrid again. - Cathrine

Después de algunas excursiones con Jarahonda, puedo asegurar que no hay ninguna opción mejor si se quiere conocer la Sierra de Madrid a caballo. Mariano, su propietario, es un gran conocedor de la zona y un magnífico guía. La organización es perfecta, las comidas en el campo fantásticas y los caballos aptos para cualquier nivel de equitación. Desde las rutas de medio día hasta las de tres días, todas las propuestas son magníficas. Recomiendo especialmente la Ruta a Valsain (Segovia), atravesando los magníficos pinares del Parque Nacional de la Sierra de Guadarrama, y la que recorre los alrededores del Monasterio del Escorial. He tenido la suerte de disfrutar de las dos, la última de ellas hoy mismo. Vuelvo, como siempre, encantado de compartir una jornada a caballo con Jarahonda. Gracias, Mariano.

Pasamos una mañana entera en una ruta a caballo.Nos lo pasamos estupendamente por muchas razones:1. Los paisajes son increíbles y merecen la pena2. El guía, Mariano, es un gran conocedor del mundo de los caballos (altamente cualificado) y además conoce la historia de la zona, lo que hace el paseo mucho más interesante3. Los caballos están muy bien cuidados y además te asignan el caballo ideal para tus características físicas y tu conocimiento.Totalmente recomendable.Gonzalo y Clara

Ce séjour reste inoubliable, tant par ses hôtes adorables et très sympatiques que par les paysages qui vous entourent. A moins de 30 min de Madrid, vous êtes plongés en pleine nature. Dépaysement garanti!

Paisajes inolvidables, muy buenos caballos y con gente majisima cualquiera se lo pasa guai!!! Yo y mi hija - muy contentas!
