Adventure and Cultural Travel with a Sustainable Twist
Third day We had lunch at this absolutely gorgeous little spot which was a couple of km away from the main trail – the horses seemed to know lunch break was coming up and started moving faster. They’re not so different from us! I let Brownie canter and then gallop Continue Reading
One of my favourite things about this trip? The pace: taking things slow but riding fast. This has got to be the perfect way to live. We would wake up at about 8am and have a leisurely breakfast before starting to pack up our things for loading onto the packhorses Continue Reading
