  • The Benasque Valley trail
    September 2024 YUKIKO aged 45
    The guide is really professional and the mountain views were just fantastic! All horses are very well trained. Boira was very clever, calm and lovely. I find that usually, quiet and calm horses can be slow and lazy, but their horses are very calm and moving forward!
