The Venezuelan
Andes
offer several opportunities to ride the local horses.
In our 4 nights Andes
Adventure, horseback ride through beautiful river
valleys, homesteads and 11,000 feet high paramos and then
from the tiny and quaint village of Los Nevados to the
Loma Redonda Station of the world's highest and longest
cable car system, reaching heights of up to 13,944 feet
on the way. Our 3
nights and 4

lakes surrounded by an incredible variety of mountain
flowers and birdlife.
Some properties, like Hotel
Los Frailes and El
Tao Ecological Guesthouse & Spa also offer horseback
riding chances. Click here to read more about a past client's perspective on horseback riding in the Andes.
It
is possible to arrange horseback riding experiences in
any of our preferred hatos in the Venezuelan Llanos,
including El
Cedral, Piñero
and El
Frio, where more than 1,000 horses roam these marvelous
lowlands.
Explore
the arid and isolated, yet scenic hills and coasts of
Macanao Peninsula, the western portion of Venezuela's
biggest island, Margarita,
on horseback. Two daily half day tours are available for
beginners and experts alike to discover this cacti-surrounded
landscape teeming with birds and mammals like foxes, rabbits
and goats.
