Sierra Nevada - Spain

Sulayr Ride

5 star rating   9 July 2025

Esther who has been on 2 In The Saddle rides. Amazing scenery | All the information on the website was accurate - there really were some very steep and narrow paths! The riding was suitable for experienced riders - I think a novice might struggle a bit. The horses were really forward going, surefooted, fit and well. We were out for about 7 hours a day which suited me 🙂

Do you have any comments about the accommodation and food?

The accommodation was comfortable. It was extremely hot during my stay so it would have been good to have air con. I expect when there isn’t a heatwave the temperature in the accommodation would be perfectly fine. Dinners in the local restaurants were authentic and especially tasty after a long days riding!

The scenery was beyond-scale and each day’s riding was really different. The picnic lunches were lovely and Dallas and Mordecai really knew their horses and were so helpful in giving tips on how to get the best from each horse. There were plenty of grazing stops for the horses and they all looked really well. Although it was very very hot, the cool air higher up in the mountains was lovely, and we saw some ibex in the forest!
Overall a great time 🙂
