Unser Tipp
Ride the California coast and enjoy the ocean!Beschreibung & Reiseverlauf
Here you can expect a fabulous week along the north coast of California, where the magic lies in the spectacular scenery, the spray of the Pacific Ocean, the ancient redwoods and huge cattle farms. This is an area of great natural beauty, rich in wildlife and where time flows at the relaxed pace of the West Coast. You will gallop along lonely beautiful sandy beaches and rugged cliffs. On mossy trails you ride through the beautiful redwood forests and along the rugged Mendocino Coast of Northern California. Your hosts have a number of superbly trained horses at their disposal. The quality of the horses is exceptional, as are the beautiful trails you will discover together. This is a riding vacation suitable for all levels of riders. When appropriate, the group can be split up so that everyone gets their money´s worth. The Redwood Coast Ride trails stretch for many kilometres along deserted beaches, through a large cattle farm, through huge old redwood forests and up into the coastal mountains. Your accommodation is in one of several beautiful hotels in Fort Bragg or Mendocino.
You will explore a different area every day. There are several mornings when you will load the horses into a trailer and drive to the starting point of the ride (e.g. Redwood Forest).
Reiseverlauf
Sample itinerary - subject to change:
Day 1: Arrival at Ricochet Stables by 14:00 hrs. You will receive a briefing, the horses will be assigned by arrangement and you will get to know your horse. Right today you will experience your first ride on the wonderful wide Pacific beach. Here you can test to your heart´s content and in all gaits whether your horse fits to them. In the evening you check in at your hotel.
Day 2: Breakfast at your hotel and arrival at the stable at 9:30 am. You ride to Simcha Ranch and enjoy a lunch picnic on the way. In the afternoon ride along Ten Mile Beach. This nature reserve is located about 18 miles north of Mendocino and gives you the feeling of going on a personal safari on the water. This wild stretch of pristine coastline includes one of California´s longest dune systems. All kinds of animals live here. More than 90 bird species live, nest or make annual migration stops on and around Ten Mile Beach. Whales snort in the Pacific, seals loll about on the rocky shoreline, and otters live at the river mouth.
Day 3: Breakfast at your hotel. Arrival at the stables at 9:30 am. Today you will ride through parts of the Parker Family Forest. The Parkers were an old-established family with a property bordering the western timberline, in the community of Great Hallingbury. The family seat was Hallingbury Place and the family owned part of the forest from 1592 to 1666. A delicious picnic awaits you on the way.
