Enjoy the beautiful scenery of Cantabria on a horseback ride through the Picos de Europa!

In the north of Spain, we find the Picos de Europa, the highest peaks of the Cantabrian Mountains, 646 km long, which stretch through Asturias, León and Cantabria and are made up of 3 main massifs. The Picos de Europa is the third most visited natural park in Spain and has been a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve since 2002 thanks to its valleys, lakes, steep peaks... The best way to explore them is by hiking or on horseback!

A horse-riding route through the Picos de Europa is a unique way of getting to know this impressive mountain range in northern Spain.
