Family rides, riding with children in the Andes of Chile
We have such a delightful place to camp and the option of shorter rides, suitable for children, that it opens up the possibility of family holidays on horseback.
El lugar a donde hacemos campamento es un valle escondido, lindissimo, en la alta cordillera de los Andes. Es protegido y lleno de agua, esteritos y un rio - el Clarillo - que pasa a juntarse con el rio rojo - el Morado a un lado del valle. Es un lugar perfecto para ninos - a jugar, subir rocas, mojarse un poco. Hay muchas flores y pajaros a un pequeno lago cerca, para banarse.

We take long rides out from here but there are also short rides of great beauty, visiting waterfalls, what remains of the snow (depending on the month), crossing rivers, sometimes we get the chance to herd some cattle to help our guides as we ride. We are thinking of opening a competition for the best view from a loo in the world. We have several candidates and this place is one of them (see photo below)

Riding in the Andes for children is often not recommended and many of the rides are too long and tiring. In this little paradise we can tailor the rides to the length that your family will enjoy. We have guides who are family men and who take immense care of the children, using a leading rein if necessary, or even, in the case of my 3 year old granddaughter, sitting her in front of them in the saddle. (This was a special case and not really an option for unknown children.) A large strong 5 year old or upwards, perhaps better at 6 years old, can get untold pleasure from this. For children and teenagers it is a cowboy dream and the parents can have the holiday of a lifetime without leaving the children behind.
