点评:We were looking for a short-break holiday riding horses in Spain and my wife found Sierra trails. This well-exceeded our expectations. We were picked up from Malaga (by Jeanette) and driven to our accommodation in a traditional grand spanish-style house in the beautiful heritage village of Bubion, high in the mountains of the Sierra Nevada, Spain. There was snow visible on the highest peaks even on a hot day in June. Our guide was Dallas Love, who grew up in this area and has years of experience of taking horse-riders on the many trails in the surrounding area. The horses are stabled about 5km away from the guest accommodation and riders are taken by car to the stable. There are many fine and experienced horses - mostly Andalucian geldings and Dallas chooses a horse to suit each rider. The trails along traditional pathways, go widely around the area and afford spectacular views and insight into an area that was first populated more than 1000 years ago. Most of the trails are at a walking pace, and their are areas where the rider must dismount and lead the horse, but there are opportunities for faster work including canters. Dallas prepares a picnic lunch that will exceed the expectations of even the most critical rider. Evening meals are taken in one of the several restaurants in Bubion. Overall, this was a delightful experience and one that we hope to repeat many times.
翻译:我们想在西班牙骑马度过一个短暂的假期,我的妻子发现了塞拉利昂小径。这远远超出了我们的预期。我们被珍妮特(Jeanette)从马拉加接上,然后开车前往我们在西班牙内华达山脉高处美丽的遗产村庄布比昂(Bubion)的一栋传统西班牙风格的宏伟房屋中住宿。即使在六月炎热的日子里,最高峰上也能看到积雪。我们的导游是达拉斯·洛夫(Dallas Love),他在这个地区长大,拥有多年带领骑马者游览周边地区许多小径的经验。马厩距离客房约 5 公里,骑手将乘车前往马厩。这里有许多优秀且经验丰富的马匹 - 大部分是安达卢西亚骟马,达拉斯会选择适合每位骑手的马匹。沿着传统小路的小径广泛环绕该地区,可以欣赏到壮丽的景色,并深入了解这个 1000 多年前首次有人居住的地区。大多数步道都是步行速度,骑手必须下马牵马,但也有机会进行更快的工作,包括慢跑。达拉斯准备了一顿野餐午餐,即使是最挑剔的骑手也会超出其预期。晚餐在布比翁的几家餐厅之一享用。总的来说,这是一次令人愉快的经历,我们希望能够多次重复。
