Itinerary

HORSEBACK TRAIL RIDE IN ANDALUSIA
INDICATIVE ITINERARY *

Day 1: Meeting in Andalusia. Transfer from Almeria airport, bus station or train station. Night in a hotel near San José.

Day 2: Genoveses beach. Genoveses, with its white sand dunes, used to be the location for many movie shootings: Indiana Jones, Arabian Laurance… During this first day, you will discover an extraordinary landscape: undoubtedly the last wild beaches of the Mediterranean.
About 3 hours on horseback.

Day 3: The pirate trail. You follow the trails on horseback along the cliffs of Cabo de Gata Natural Park, and discover the most spectacular views of the Mediterranean in the area. This ride passes through an old path that served as a connection between the castles and the watchtowers: indeed, during the 18th century, there were coast guards to prevent and protect in the event of a pirate invasion.
About 3 hours on horseback.

Day 4: The western villages. Inside the park, far from the coast, are quirky villages such as "Los Albaricoques", where several westerns were shot in the 1970s: "A Fistful of Dollars", "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly", etc ... The streets have names: Clint Eastwood, Sergio Leone ... Lunch at the local restaurant" El Alba ", the owner (with a Mexican air), will offer you a typical cuisine and will tell you about his participation in some movies.
About 5:30 to 6 hours on horseback.

Day 5: The Volcano Valley. To the North of the park, are the Sierra de Gata mountains, which have preserved the craters of ancient volcanoes, creating a lunar landscape. They were in action 15 to 16 million years ago. At the time, the population worked to irrigate this area, using this huge volcanic cone to collect rainwater which concentrates on its lower part, where the crops are located. You ride on the sides of the volcanoes and canter on the paths that lead from the volcanoes to the sea.
About 3 hours on horseback.

Day 6: Monsùl beach. Mónsul is a 400-meter-long beach, surrounded by rock formations of volcanic origin on its sides, and a huge dune of fine sand. In the middle of the beach, there is a large rock that has become the emblem of this beach and of the natural park, called La Peineta de Mónsul. This rock is shaped like a giant wave that seems to want to return to the sea. Steven Spielberg chose this beach to film "Indiana Jones" and "The Last Crusade" with Harrison Ford and Sean Connery.
About 3 hours on horseback.

Day 7: End of your horseback ride in Andalusia. Transfer to Almeria after breakfast.
