New Mare "Keira" Joins Our Riding Centre

Posted by Sarah Vesely on Sunday, January 30, 2011,
Missing our wonder girl worker, Keira, we've decided to name our new
rather 'sporty' bay mare after her.  Keira (the mare) is fast becoming
fit, and has proved to have the stamina required for fast mountain
work!  Pretty, with blonde streaks in her mane, she is learning fast
and looking gooooood...

My Time Horse Riding In Spain

Posted by Jo Ritter on Monday, April 5, 2010, In : People 
Have been staying at Caballo Blanco horse riding centre for a month now, the weather is beautiful and the views are lush. Have nearly forgotten that this hasn't always been my life and that soon am going to leave. Caballo Blanco is a horse trekking center in the Alpujarras mountains in the south of Spain. Have been woofing here, feeding and looking after the horses and doing lots of riding around the mountains. Keep changing my mind about which horse i like to ride the best, but has been grea...

Andalucian Horse Riding Centre

Posted by Lucy Atcheson on Saturday, February 6, 2010, In : People 
I came to spend a month at the Spanish Riding Stables, Caballo Blanco to try something completely different. I had never really ridden or had anything to do with horses before, but was attracted by the idea of coming to spend some time living in the mountains in such a beautiful part of the world.

Since I have been here I have been really enjoying getting to know the Andalucian horses, Ive been working with horses, learning how to look after them and helping out with the day to day running of...

New Andalucian Mare

Posted by Sarah on Tuesday, February 2, 2010, In : Horses 
Another addition to our Spanish Riding stables: what a lovely little horse! I couldnt resist buying this sweet natured Andalucian 8 year old. We hope to have her schooled and ready to ride by Spring. Yet to be named, this sturdy lady has settled amazingly well on her first day. I hope to include her in our two and three day rides in April. No doubt our Working Holiday helpers will enjoy getting her fit, once she has undergone some gentle schooling.

The Caballo Blanco farm is located on this amazing hill in the Sierra Nevada range, overlooking a beautiful valley with towns, rivers and even a lake! The stables and horses are surrounded by olive and almond orchards and snowy peaks are hanging above.

Originally I come from another spot around the mediterranean, the Menashe hills, Israel, where I complete my graduate studies in agriculture and raise arabian hors...
