Why Choose La Paz? Because Riding Should Be Fun!
Have endless lunging sessions, dry group lessons, and confusing commands kept you from exploring the world of horses so far? At Rancho La Paz, you are right in the middle of the action from the very first moment!

Direct Contact: You live right here with our horses and build an immediate bond with them.

Learning at Eye Level: In small, informal groups and under expert guidance, we explain everything about horses – completely without pressure.

Your Dream Partners: Our Andalusians are absolutely reliable, calm, and experienced trekking horses. They give you a sense of safety and trust right from the start.

Your Tailor-Made Riding Program
You can decide on-site whether you want to ride once or twice a day, without having to commit beforehand. We start relaxed:

Safe on the Trail: To begin, we ride on easy, flat paths. This allows you to get used to the horse’s movements in peace and learn how to use the aids.

Playful Learning: On our riding “playground” with small, creative obstacles, learning the basics of riding is simply tons of fun.

Perfect for You: This program is ideal for absolute beginners, unconfident riders (e.g., when cantering on the trail), returners after a break, or after bad experiences. Here, everyone rides stress-free!

Off the Beaten Track in the Mountains Yet Close to Everything – Pure Flexibility: Riding, Beach & Culture

You only want to ride “a little bit” and enjoy the sun for the rest of your holiday? Our finca is perfectly located to get the best out of Andalusia:

    • Beach & Sea: In just 10 minutes, you can reach the vibrant Costa del Sol with its sandy beaches, cozy beach bars, and great restaurants.
    • Culture & Excursions: The famous white villages are almost on your doorstep (30 mins). Top destinations like Ronda, Granada, Seville, and Córdoba can be reached easily in about 2 hours.
    • Experiences & Lifestyle: Experience the nightlife in Marbella, go whale and dolphin watching in Tarifa (with a ferry to Morocco!), or visit the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art in Jerez.
    • Active in the Campo: Besides all kinds of water sports, the nature around the finca invites you to wonderful hikes and bike tours (bike rental in Fuengirola).

General

The beginner programs can be booked year-round on a daily or weekly basis.

There is no riding program on the arrival and departure days.

You will ride Andalusian mares and geldings on Spanish saddles with long stirrups and hackamores (bitless bridles) one-handed. A very simple and comfortable riding style for both rider and horse. We only ride at a walk and canter.

You do not need any experience with horses or handling them, but you should have no health issues and the necessary fitness to practice this sport.

The maximum weight of the rider including riding clothes is 95 kg.

Arrival and Departure

We offer transfers to and from Malaga Airport (7:00 AM – 8:00 PM at €40 / car and 8:00 PM – 7:00 AM at €50 / car).

If you want to be flexible and go on excursions, we recommend a rental car. You can often book these very cheaply along with your flight from Malaga Airport.

We offer the beginner program with complete flexibility – everyone can choose how much they want to ride.

You can choose between:

Accommodation with full board or accommodation with breakfast (rental car recommended).

You can arrange your riding program on-site or directly book the “large riding program” with 10 trail rides or the “small riding program” with 5 trail rides.

The trail rides always take place in the morning and afternoon, and you can schedule your rides yourself.
