La Fortuna
COSTA RICA
leavesandlizards@gmail.com


Costa Rica equestrian journeys - more than a horse trek. Based at Leaves and Lizards Arenal Volcano Cabin Retreat in La Fortuna, Costa Rica.

The Horses: The Costa Rican horses, Costarricense de Paso also known as Criolla, are a combination of several Spanish horses (Barb, Andulusian, Arab) and the Peruvian Stepping Horse. This magical combination has created horses with a smooth, comfortable gait. The spirit of the Costa Rican horses will touch your soul. They are fearless, sure footed, hardworking, and extremely versatile. The horses at Leaves and Lizards are cared for and trained using natural horsemanship techniques based on the 7 games of Pat Parelli. We offer a variety of horses to choose from.

The Environment/Weather: Costa Rica has around 30 different micro-climates. On the trek, you will be riding through at least 3 of these micro-climates. We are located on the Caribbean slope, and our weather is wetter; the rainforest is greener and denser than on the Pacific Slope. We schedule the treks during times of the year with the best chance for good weather. However, you may get wet on one or more of the trekking days. Unless you are the Wicked Witch of the West, you will live!

The Nature: Speaking of 'Oz'... you may feel like you have entered into the 'Land of Oz' during your journey. The trek takes you cantering across rolling hills, through rainforests, fording clear rivers, and trotting down isolated country roads through sleepy villages. Views from the hilltops are breathtaking. The Arenal Volcano dominates the vista; look the other way, and you'll see 3 more volcanoes in the distance. Across the northern plains, Lake Nicaragua shimmers on the horizon. You'll be sure to spot all sorts of creatures, including curious monkeys (without wings), happy sloths, dozens of species of flamboyant tropical birds, poison dart frogs, and maybe even an ocelot or other wild cat - just to name a few!
