The Butterflies Trail is a horse-riding experience ideal for beginners, created especially for children or families with children aged 3 to 10. The route follows gentle and safe paths in the Aire and Candeeiros Natural Park, where the landscape reveals light, colour and the delicate flight of the butterflies that inspire the name of the tour.
Accompanied on foot by a guide and riding a calm horse accustomed to young participants, this experience offers a safe, peaceful and confidence-building first contact with the world of horses.
It is a simple and sweet activity, perfect for creating happy family memories and discovering nature in a serene and engaging way.
