Horseback Riding

The highlands of Caldera, only 20 minutes away from Boquete, make an ideal destination for horseback riding. The rural countryside with its volcanic stone walls, golden fields and green rolling hills is very pleasant to explore riding in the company of a good horse and a couple of mates. There are miles and miles of open plains which are ideal for galloping and the horses naturally love it. The temperature is also a little less cool than in Boquete and it tends to be a bit drier giving you the opportunity to appreciate a different panorama. Spend your horseback riding day meandering through green rolling hills, wading through pristine streams, venturing into breathtaking canyons, and crossing through millennium-old lava rock fields. After a 15-minute horseback riding safety orientation, you will have over two hours of guided horseback riding through the trails around the mountains and the lowlands of Caldera, an area with beautiful landscapes and picturesque views of Volcan Baru. In this horseback riding tour you will cross rivers and small streams, encounter beautiful landscapes and admire the Volcan Baru from a real special perspective. At the end of the trip you will arrive to a look out point with panoramic vistas of the surrounding mountains and serene valleys blanketed by lush rain forests. From here you will be able to observe the Pacific Ocean, Chiriqui's lowlands and the Baru Volcano, all at the same time. Some say the scenery is the main attraction of the horseback riding tour in Caldera. Our guides are trained in navigation skills, first-aid and CPR.
