Chile Trail Rides Andes

Chile trail rides information

On trail on the top of the roof of the Andes. For your information, we practice over 17 years trail rides in the Andes, and riding in the South or North of Chile is just fascinating. The are wonderfully extremes in both parts of the country and the endless horizon and loneliness’ wilderness on the horse ride is just fantastic. But watch out the offers and trail rides information of horse riding outfitters! Very often mention on the Website “English speaking guide” turn out a young girl or boy, who just arrive from abroad and do a practice scholarship as a student, is your guide – and maybe not managing to speak well English. So check before booking, because for e.g. if you ride in Southern Chile in the Valdivian Rainforest, this forest has 90 species more than the Amazon forest, there are hundreds of stories to tell, and is boring, if the guide don’t know any story – you miss a lot! Our equestrian vacation packages is a combination of rides and clinics, to give you a idea to understand a horse better.

Pack trips with horses in Chile

are depend on top equipment. Important is a soft saddle, and the original Chilean mountain – horse trekking saddle, the working saddle of the Andean peoples, is very soft and comfy. Normally there are two sheepskins on top, so ask for this. Some offers western saddle, but by my experience stay a way, the Chilean is better. Long riding booths are not recommended, the are sleepy on the ground. On trail rides in Chile you have to get often of the horse, walking parts of the trail, going in the evening and morning on the camp site, so bring good light trekking shoes or short riding booth. In Southern Chile or Patagonia a one day nature offers 4 different weathers, from summer to winter. Be prepared for all kind of climate, even in Summer you maid can cool down you beer beside your tent. In rainy areas a rain poncho like bikers use is very comfortable, you stay dry and same as your saddle too. In our area, in Northern Chile pack trips and riding is more easier, because we have 310 sunny days. You have to protect you from the sun with a good sun hut. The days are warm, not hot, the nights cool.

Equestian holidays in Chile

in the Andes is a adventure. In Chile on the horse rides everything you can expect. Easy trails, climbing up and down, being on goat path or crossing rivers. On the photo we just cross, on this day very low level, the Rio Cochamo river and this region is close to Puerto Montt. I know this river very well and the trails, we built up and create this horseback outfit and run it for over 7 years. The trail rides are a life-time adventure and the company call Campo Aventura.
Chile Trail Rides in the Valdivian Rainforest
Our ex-company is run today very well by US-Americans. Pure equestrian holidays, good horseback riding in adventure style with comfort. The romantic Outdoor lodge in the Andes you can reach only on a pack trip.

Trail riding in Chile with Criollo horses

Criollo horses are very confident horses with a relax attitude. Therefore Chile has a special horse riding image, but to be honest, its more the horse than the peoples behind. This horses are outstanding, nearly unbelievable what the are doing for us human. In the terrain the are going true difficulty, you maid have even dream about such terrain. My respect about horses in generally and is the naturally way, we tread our horses with out force and pain. We ride bit less bridle, train them for partner ship and we own pure Criollo breed horses. We are based in Northern Chile and in this area we are the only professional outfit for riding tours, naturally based on our 17 year experience, and with out overdoing, we are the only horse outfitter who work on horses with close hands and trust, it calls Natural Horsemanship.

In Chile Equestian Vacation
means you need good spirits. On some of the trails you are out of everywhere and improvisation starts. On the other hand Chile offers for rider unlimited trail ride and adventure. In Southern Chile “Campo Aventura” runs this Outdoor Lodge in the middle of nowhere, just in pure nature out of civilisation. In our valley Rio Hurtado riding guest like to sleep very often under the star sky with out tent. Our region has the clearest star sky of the world, all famous observatories are base hear. I know so many riders dream is to ride under the clear star sky, don’t dream, just do it. We offer short night rides in the Andes.
