RIDERS
Escorts
are qualified first aiders, know the trails and nature well and
carry a mobile phone.
NATURE WALKS
A wonderful way for beginner riders to enjoy the countryside on
horseback.On the safety of a lead rein if required. Ride past
Cork and Carob trees. Be on the look out for the Azul-winged Magpies,
lizards and rabbits.
TREKS
Walking and trotting through the pinewoods, beside the golf course
and lakes. In spring wild flowers abound and the area attracts
a wealth of bird life. Smell the Thyme, Rosemary and the "Curry"
plant. No road work!
HACKS
One hour hacks take place in the same area as
above, to the south of the stables.
Two hour hacks explore further afield and may
have to cross roads and occasionally ride along short stretches
of quiet roads to link up to off road riding.
Ludo is a farming valley with orange groves,
old farm houses and perhaps a flock of sheep accompanied by a
shepherd and his dog.
Several routes bring rides to the beach area
with tracks beside sand dunes and tidal lagoons and through forestry.
Sea breezes cool the face on a warm day. To protect the environment
we do not ride on the dunes nor on the beach in summer season.
The wonderful golden sandy beaches proudly possess prestigious
blue flags, indicating a high standard of safety and hygiene.
Westward brings us to Fonte Santa, with more
pines, a lake and the remains of Roman ruins buried beneath the
sands.
If you have chosen the holiday discount card It is possible
to have a different route/ area for each 2 hour ride.

BBQ chicken meal. Sunset and full moon rides. Non riders are welcome
