Wake up in paradise

Imagine waking up in a cozy room steeped in history and tranquility. From your window, you can see the sunlight gently touching the Andalusian mountains and the cortijo’s gardens. The sound of birds becomes your alarm clock, and the soft aroma of a freshly prepared breakfast fills the air. At Cortijo del Arte, each day begins like a dream.

At Cortijo del Arte Equestrian, the equestrian experience is more than just horseback riding—it’s about connecting with nature, the landscape, and yourself. Under the guidance of passionate equestrian experts, you can choose from various routes tailored to your preferences and experience level.

Picnic rides: a feast in the open air

For those seeking a tranquil yet memorable experience, horseback riding with a picnic is the perfect option. You’ll ride a noble, well-trained horse along trails surrounded by olive trees and almond blossoms. Awaiting you is a carefully prepared picnic: cheeses, cured meats, fresh fruits, artisanal bread, and a glass of Andalusian wine. Dining surrounded by nature, with the sound of wind rustling through the trees, is an experience you’ll never forget.

Premium routes: adventure and discovery

If adventure is your thing, the premium routes take you further.

Each day is a new adventure, ending with the satisfaction of having explored the best of the region.

Breathtaking scenery

From the top of a hill, sitting atop your horse, you’ll take in views that will leave you speechless: green valleys, majestic mountains, and a sky so blue it looks painted by hand. Every route feels like a living postcard, a reminder of Andalusia’s infinite beauty.

The fresh air, the sound of hooves on the ground, and the connection with nature will make you feel free, whole, and at peace. No matter how many times you experience it, each moment will be special.

Return to the perfect retreat

After a day filled with emotions, you’ll return to Cortijo del Arte, where a cozy and relaxing atmosphere awaits you. The cortijo, with its traditional architecture and history as a former 16th-century monastery, wraps you in a warm embrace.

At night, you can enjoy dinner at the El Museo restaurant, tasting traditional Andalusian dishes prepared with fresh, local ingredients. From refreshing gazpacho to oxtail stew or cod cooked in the region’s style, every bite is a tribute to Andalusia’s rich culinary heritage.

In the summer, if you’re looking for total relaxation, you can take a dip in the outdoor pool or sit on the terrace with a glass of wine, letting the day wind down at its own pace.
