Highlights

A genuine “Natural Horsemanship” philosophy. Respecting the horses’ innate nature builds real trust, resulting in an experience that’s just as positive for the animals as for riders.

Nestled between mountains and a river. The farm’s picturesque setting within the Southwest Alentejo natural park offers real, unspoiled countryside beauty.

A carefully matched horse. Being paired with the right horse for your riding level, then helping brush and saddle it, builds a genuine connection from the start.

A multilingual, deeply caring host. Past guests consistently praise Joana’s expertise, patience and multilingual guidance (English, French, German and Portuguese), calling this the best place to ride in the Alentejo.
