Horseback riding in Costa Rica is the perfect way to experience the extraordinary beauty and diversity of Costa Rica’s wildlife! Available for all levels of riders, enjoy a fully guided day, or multi-day trip through the mountains. Leave the metropolis behind and become one with nature as you ride through the mountains over the rugged terrain.

You may not expect it from a tropical country, but Costa Rica is part of a true cowboy culture, and riding horses was, and still is, a necessary means of transportation because of the rough roads.

The horses that you will ride are a mixed breed, with partial Spanish blood from when they were brought over from Spain 500 years ago. The countryside has many beautiful cattle ranches and amazing views of volcanoes, mountains, rainforest, and beaches.

Our knowledgeable Costa Rica horseback riding tour guides are great at spotting wildlife, and usually plan fun stops along the way for so you can have a swim, or bite to eat. Whether you want to start your day off with a short ride along the beach, or you would like to spend most of your days on horse traveling through the mountains, Costa Rica is the most amazing place to do it!
