Day 1: Riding Centre Catalonia: experience Spain on horseback!

Arrival in Spain (Barcelona or Girona) and transfer to our first accommodation a picturesque country house in the middle of the Catalan idyll. We enjoy the peace and quiet. What a beautiful place to begin our holiday in Spain!

Day 2: Spain like Costa Rica

We ride through thick oak and pine forests as we leave, heading towards the mountains. In a hidden valley, we cross a small stream. Some sun rays pierce the deep green of a tropical-looking jungle. Bamboo trees border the path, and high up creepers and vines grow around the trees. We are in Spain, but the atmosphere reminds us of Costa Rica.

The river Fluvia winds through a hilly terrain. We ride through the lovely river valleys and discover a nice place for our first picnic. In the afternoon, we trot and canter to our accommodation for the night.

Day 3: Wild Coast - Costa Brava

The Fluvía river winds its way through the countryside to the Mediterranean Sea. We ride through a wild floodplain landscape, cross the river, and arrive at an inviting bathing spot around midday.

After a picnic and a relaxing siesta, we follow the river to where it flows into the sea. The Gulf of Roses stretches out before us, and the sound of the waves accompanies us into the night.

Gallop through splashing Mediterranean Sea

Day 4: Vamos a la playa! Discover the Mediterranean Sea! (*)

With the sunrise, we see a kilometre-long sandy beach. A dream comes true: Riding in Spain, riding by the sea! The water splashes, the sand flies, we canter along the surf. The horses play with the waves and we try to stay dry. The canter along the beach is an unforgettable experience!

The path gently follows through the continental sand dunes and the Mediterranean pine forest up to the rugged mountain massif Montgri. On top of the cliff, we are rewarded with a fantastic view of the endless sea. Seabirds glide over the coast in the wind. In the scent of lavender, rosemary, and thyme we strengthen ourselves with a delicious saddle bag picnic.

Later we descend into the plain of the river Ter. With long canters through the river dykes we reach again the Mediterranean Sea. We can enjoy the sunset at the beach or in the swimming pool of the hotel.

Day 5: Spain, sun, beach, and the sea (*)

Right after breakfast we are back at the beach! In front of us we see the protected islands of "Medes". A canter through the soft sand of the bay brings us into the rice fields of the wide plain, up to the pine trees near the coast. We pass the pearls of the Catalan coast: Pals, Palau-Sator and Peretallada. Old city walls surround the nested rustic stone houses. On the patterned paving stones of the narrow streets, we can still see the grooves and bursts of the horse-drawn carts of the past days. In this medieval atmosphere, Dolores and Luis await us at their comfortable accommodation. In the evening, the friendly hosts await us at their comfortable accommodation.

Day 6: Catalonia

The terrain is flat, the ground soft and sandy. At a fast pace, our well trained horses trot and canter to the river "El Ter". Fruit plantations alternate with grain fields and deep green poplar forests which give us the necessary shade. We take a break on a romantic hill next to a small chapel and look forward to a delicious picnic.

After a siesta, we ride though a softly curved hillside landscape back to our horse farm.

Day 7: Hasta la vista, Catalonia!

Transfer to Barcelona or Girona or extension to another trail.

Important! As a round trail, we mostly ride the Mediterranean Trail clockwise. Under the Mediterranean Trail turn left (counter-clockwise) you will find the detailed trail description. We reserve possible deviations from the program.

Information & Services

Character

This dream tour has all the ingredients of a classic trail. With steady and quiet conditions, these rides are through forests and meadows and along paved paths through stone villages with spectacular river crossings. Canters along a sandy beach and panoramic views along the Wild Coast are hard to beat. These are the ingredients of this classic trail!

The Mediterranean Trail is ridden at all gaits, so it is recommended that you know how to connect with your four-legged partner.

Our riding week is unfortunately already over. We would like to thank Daniela and the whole team, especially Luis, for this wonderful trip. It really couldn't have been better and we had a truly breathtaking time. You really do a great job and everything worked out perfectly and the horses were an absolute dream. This will not be our last trail with you!

Thank you very much and warm regards,

We were on the Mediterranea Trail in February 2020 and since then we are looking forward to the next tour with Panorama-Trails. With Corinna and Louis we had two very friendly, always good-humoured and competent guides, who also had challenging situations well under control. We had great luck with our group. We became a very harmonious group and could enjoy this wonderful trail together to the full. The excellent picnic and dinner contributed to this as well as the lovingly selected, partly rustic Catalan accommodations. The trail itself is very varied and leads along riverbanks, sea beaches, forests, meadows and through typical Catalonian villages. Our horses have fitted very well to us, are well maintained and can fell that they are loved and well cared. We would like to thank the whole team for organizing and carrying out this beautiful trail. Also a big thank you to the other participants, who made this tour a unique and interesting experience. And last but not least thanks to the spring sun, which already spoiled us in February. We will come back with pleasure!

Don't miss this! For me it was the first trail of several days and I can only say: I enjoyed every minute. Our two guides not only had the right feeling for which horses would suit which riders, they also masterfully organized the catering, led us through beautiful landscapes and also provided good entertainment and a great atmosphere during the breaks. So it became one of those journeys from which strangers become friends. Dear Panorama Trails team, keep up the good work. I am already looking forward to seeing you again.

Very professional guide and well-trained horses! Me and my daughter went for the Mediterranean Trail. Be in good condition and a good rider for this one! The guide, Corinna, was a very good guide. Strong leadership and a really coordinator and service minded. We were 9 riders on the trail. A had a young very well-trained horse, Bandolero. He was sensitive, following my instructions and much energy. My daughter had Fenix - such a sweetheart! Both horses were forward going and fun to ride. But see to that you are a good listener for the horse’s needs. They are all individuals and have their different personalities! We did everything on the trail that you can think of - rivers, beach, mountains, up-down, bridges, traffic, forests, countryside, fields... trot, cantering, galloping. (appr 6-8 hours a day in the saddle). Good team, good food, good accommodations. Bring good clothing for different weather and sun screen! :-)

One of my best trails! Thanks to Corinna (you are such a pro! both with horses and people) and to Panorama Trails. And thanks, Bandolero a very reliable, well-trained horse with a young baby heart! Rudi - Take care of Corinna, she is one of the best!

Thank you very much for this unforgettable week !!! :-) I can only agree with Anne's last review. She found the right words for a wonderful, exciting and sporty week. Just everything has been fine and I will possibly go for a second trail in September or certainly next year.

THANK YOU for this unforgettable, great experience. This was my first ride with Panorama-Trails, but already on the journey back home it was clear that it was not my last. Nacho, our guide, led our group and the horses with such devotion and so much heart and soul !! We felt safe thanks to him and the great horses at all time. Already on the first day my horse Caspar and I were a team. I could trust him with every step and rely on him. You can feel that the horses are very important for the organization and the guides. They are optimally cared for and treated and do an outstanding job day after day. In fact, the whole trail was perfectly organized. From the first email contact with Daniela to the hoof scraper.

The transfer from the airport worked out perfectly, the accommodations were all cozy, clean and welcoming, the horses a absolute dream, Nacho just superb and the picnics of Manel and Carlos made with a lot of contagious joy. They were not responsible for the weather, but it was perfect for March. One day we even rode in a T-shirt, at the others the sun was shining and one morning it was raining, which gave the whole thing even more adventure and yes, absolutely fun. The Spanish wine for lunch and dinner was also a highlight. After the horses were taken care of, we treated ourselves to a beer in a cozy round, talked about the wonderful day and listened eagerly to the exciting stories of Nacho. Again a big thank you to ALL for these unforgettable 6 days and best wishes to the team.

This was my 10th trail with Panorama-Trails, and as always, I've fallen in love with my horse, a snow-white Andalusian gelding - forward going, but easy to handle :)

Our accommodation was nice, and the weather was pretty good too considering it was November! We could even ride in t-shirts for a while!! As expected, the food was amazing: the picnics at lunch time as well as the 3-course meals in the evenings. Of course, it went down well with a glass of wine, or two... :) As always, it was a fantastic week. Thank you very much to the whole team, especially to our trail guide Corinna and to my horse Feriol!!!

Warm regards,

A beautiful and unforgettable holiday!!! First class in every way!

Our high expectations were exceeded by far for our first long-awaited trail riding holiday. Everything was very well and lovingly organized. Rudi and his team are just great!

We felt very safe on our picturesque route through beautiful Catalonia with our trail guide Corinna and she treated us with warmth and humor and acted with great competency. Also to be noted was the care for the horses, which was evident from the start. Valent and Bandolero, our horses for the week, were great! Balanced, uncomplicated and both so lovable in their own way that we would have liked to put them in our suitcase! :) We felt totally safe on them and enjoyed every day.

The trail itself, in our opinion, was very suitable as an introduction to trail riding in all its facets, as there is a bit of everything on the trails: river crossings, forests, fields, mountainous terrain, quaint Spanish villages, beach and sea. We loved when our guide said "Vamos Galoppe! - the trail was often very fast, which was a lot of fun and added variety.

We were well catered for during the breaks, whilst the horses got a rest and something to eat. So, we both continued well-nourished to carry on further into our adventure. In the evenings we stayed at beautiful and cosy accommodation and enjoyed the delicious local food (and wine). Each guesthouse we stayed at had its own authentic and rustic charm.

Our group was great too. We were a sociable, funny group and we all felt very close. It was difficult to say farewell to the other riders, as well as to the horses, after this eventful and beautiful week.

We would like to thank Panorama-Trails for this wonderful adventure that we were able to experience, and we can say “we will definitely be back”!

Best regards,

My 2nd trip with Panorama Trails! What happiness!!! The scenery is breath-taking and the horses are amazing. An unforgettable trip!! Nacho, the guide, is attentive and you feel really safe with him.

April 2018

I had a wonderful holiday riding the Mediterranean Trail. Each day brought a new adventure and the opportunity to enjoy the Catalan countryside aboard safe, well cared for horses.

Our guide Nacho and his assistant super Dani made the experience even more enjoyable, both are wonderful horsemen and a pleasure to be around. Nacho expertly matched riders to their mounts and despite the trails fast pace (~100 mikes in 5 days) there was never a time that I felt unsafe. Dani was a logistics genius always keeping one step ahead of us to ensure the horses night time accommodation were ready, our lunch picnics were flawless, and ensuring our luggage made it from point to point every day.

Riders should be prepared for long trots and canters every day on this ride, you will be rewarded with beautiful scenery that varies every day (bamboo lined paths, river crossings, pine forests, rice fields, mountains & beaches!), the ability to ride through many small villages, and delicious food and wine.

I went on this tour as a solo rider, but I have happily come away from the experience with a great group of new friends. I don't often return to the same location for holidays, but for Panorama Trails I will gladly make an exception.

The Mediterranean Trail ride was all I thought it would be and more. This was my first time taking a horseback holiday and Panorama Trails will be my forever vacation outfitter in Spain. The Mediterranean Trail ride is a 5 day roughly 100-mile loop through the Catalonia region of Spain. Nacho, our guide is an exceptional horseman and teacher who emphasizes safety and fun. He has a great personality and makes sure that each rider is matched to the horse that suits their ability for the ride. I've ridden my entire life and the horse Nacho selected for me was the perfect match.

The Panorama Trails support team was amazing too. Dani, Nacho's trail assistant was friendly and really a jack of all trades from moving our luggage, staging our lunch stops, helping with horses, and staging our horse layover locations was a logistical marvel.

Rudi, the owner of the company was also immediately responsive to our needs. One of my trail mates felt her horse was a bit too forward for her by the end of the day Rudi personally delivered a more suitable horse at our hotel location.

Again, I can't say enough great things about this company and I will definitely be back for the Wild Coast Pirates Trail, Fresh and Salt Water Trail, and the Mountain and Coast Outlaw Trail. The food, accommodations, horses, and staff are all top notch.

Truly, truly the most amazing vacation. The Mediterranean Trail was the perfect ride to experience a variety of landscapes along the Costa Brava. The sights were beautiful, the horses were fantastic and our guide, Nacho, was beyond helpful, knowledgeable, and entertaining. It was an unforgettable week spent in the saddle!

Thanks for another great trail in this wonderful area of Catalonia. We were 11 riders from seven countries led by our excellent guide Anaïs. We had long gallops and a lot of trotting, the horses were very fit and did not seem to show fatigue. And of course being served good food! Thanks to Danny and Jose for providing good service at all levels. Breakfast usually at 09:00 and we rode most of the day turning in the horses usually at six o'clock. For those who do not have any plans in the X-mas of 2016 this trail is an excellent alternative! Ride safe!

"The Mediterranean Trail May, 5 -11 2014"
I had a amazing time during this absolutely fabulous trail!

I was the "green one" in the group but every thing exceeded my expectations and I had a blast! Horses were so well trained and sweet, international group was funny and helpful, and of course the trail it self was the most beautiful with changing landscape from poppy fields to seaside and everything between. Most important thing for the successful trail was our great guide Nacho, who made us feel safe by showing great horsemanship and knowledge of human nature :) I really lived my dream!

I'm sure to attend next year again!

I'm just back from my first trail experience and still can't believe how amazing these days were. I almost never before spend such a relaxing holiday, with so good food, such a great landscape and nice accomodations as well as a huge portion of good humor.
Nobody should miss it!
Special thanks to our guide Nacho, who contributed with a lot of energy and good spirit to the success of this adventure.
I fell in love a little with my horse Tito who was a very reliable companion with a strong character.
I will come back again - the latest next year!

Thank you so much, Nacho, Rudi and Kathrin!

Hi Panorama-trails!

I want to thank you for my second perfect ride with you.
Last time i was sad when i went home, i had then no plan to go back " a perfect weekand to have that again very hard, better have it as a good memory and go somewhere else" .
But then i decided to give it one more chance and if next trip was half as good as the first one i would be plaesed.
And it was equal not the same and that was good.
You have really created a unique ridingtour company.
And one thing that so many need today and hard to find is things to do there you can de-stress, after a week with you the brain is totally empty and you have so much new energi.

This time when i went home i was not sad i was happy have i done this two times i can do it again and again and again!

So for 99.99% chance you will meet me again next year probably one of the mountainrides.

So BIG BIG BIG thanks for my two rides with you and your guides and assistent are so nice they really want you to have a great week and horse wow!!!

Best regards!

Greetings from Canada! My friend and I had the time of our lives when we went on the Mediterranean Trail in early May of this year. I had the perfect horse (I'm sure she would argue and say hers was the best), and our personalities matched very well. On the way back to the airport, we were trying to calculate the cost of purchasing our mounts and having them shipped back to Canada (haha). It was my first experience riding in another country, and I can say that I will never travel without a horse again! The views were astounding and I still look at pictures and videos from the trip with a fond nostalgia. During the final breakfast, every person on the ride agreed with enthusiasm that they would love to have another week with your fabulous horses. I would like to thank you for your excellent staff and ride guides, who are nothing but the best, and I hope this isn't the last time we meet.

I recently had the pleasure to ride on the Mediterranean Trail Ride and I can easily say that it was one of the greatest experiences of my life -- I loved the whole thing. The horses were incredible and Rudi did an amazing job of matching horses and riders. The trails and landscapes were stunning and the organization of the whole 6 days was nothing short of fabulous. I want to put out a very special "Thanks" to a very special person -- Jordi -- who was the trail leader and he was not only a fearless and completely capable leader, he was a total delight to spend the week with and never tired of all of our endless questions and chit-chat. He was a very good sport! Thank you all so very much and I look forward to my return,

Once again a thousand thanks for the mirific trail. I really enjoyed these vacations, which were relaxing and sporty!

Your team and your horses (especially Mufasa) are fantastic! I really hope to come back soon. My friends and families were impressed by the pictures and some of them already want to come along!! Especially those photos of the beach, the rivers and the gallops. I bet many other friends would want to come along after seeing them! Thanks again,

For the Record: This is a note of thanks and acknowledgement for Rudi's finely honed spirit of adventure and obvious love of the excrutiatingly beautiful, and for Buffalo's art of setting a table with the accoutrements of gourmet dining in the wild while plying us with the charms of "vino tinto".

And, most especially, for the delightful spirt-lead into the gracious arts of the Catalonian culture, for his aplomb, and navigation, and for his well tempered management of six wide ranging and diverse women, and for whose generousity with himself, engaging smile, and warmth, always the gentleman and professional, made our play a reality, for this, I want to thank Jordi. He made us laugh until we cried, and studded our moments with information and delightful repartee. We could not hove known a better time spent without him as our Ride Master. Thank you for allowing us your good company, for the great matches with our horses, and for the introduction to the heart and soul of Catalonia! A World Class Adventure! My friend and I are already planning our next trip to Catalonia.... Herdsmen? Bandits?

Rudi and his team could not have been more gracious, more helpful, or more fun! The scenery was wonderful, the meals superb, and the accommodations charming. How did it seem effortless? I have been riding all my life and I must say how wonderful Rudi's horses are. They are beautiful trained, and team well both with rider and with each other. I hope to return.

Rudi,

I cannot believe that I have been home a week already. Regret that I had to leave the ride early and miss the frauleins gossiping in German!! Please thank the staff for making the ride an enjoyable experience and especially Buffalo for getting me to the bus station and helping me make my connections on the last day .
When you see Lizzie at Mas Roca tell her that I have never had such a good pool partner. maybe we can play again some time .
Continued success with your rides, I will defintely recommend you in the future..

Saludos,

Hi Christina,

Here are some pictures that I think you would like. We are slowly getting back to reality and have so many fabulous memories from our trip to Spain. It was truly a fairy-tale

Thanks to all of you for making our trip so special. Say hi to Aries and Quijote!
