Horses & guides

  • Over twenty beautiful, obedient and sure-footed quarter horses that master the local trails
  • Our expert local horsemen will guide you on daily rides through safe and challenging trails, beautiful lush forests, high mountains, enchanting valleys, creeks and deep ravines. They are friendly and costumer oriented local riders, born and raised in San Miguel Tecpán and they have been working in Rancho Las Margaritas for several years. They are all highly skilled horsemen and are first aid certified by the Mexican Red Cross.
  • You will always be assisted by a bilingual staff member.
  • You will experience daily 5-6 hour, breath taking rides that you will never forget.
  • Riding in groups of not more than 8 horses, this is the most intimate way of experiencing the real, deep, Mexican countryside.
  • You must be an intermediate to advanced skill rider for the kind of trail we ride on
  • Our horses are usually ridden on Mexican Charro or western style saddles, we have some English and Aussie saddles as well.
  • Our tack is finely cared for and in perfect condition
  • We have two training rings and more than thirty stables
  • We will start with a hearty local breakfast at 8:30 in the morning; saddled up and riding by 10:00, we will ride for about three hours and then enjoy a delicious lunch deep in the mountains by 13:00 in the afternoon. We will ride for around two more hours and return to Rancho Las Margaritas for evening drinks. A delicious dinner will be served at 18:00 and a campfire with Mexican music will be started for all to enjoy and chat.
  • If you decide so, we can take you fishing or you can visit the local plaza and church.
