El recorrido es tranquilo y sin mucha exigencia. 

Definitivamente no.  Los caballos están preparados para recibir a personas que nunca hayan montado y el proceso de aprendizaje es significativamente veloz. La modalidad es “al paso”, en forma expedición, un caballo detrás del otro, para avanzar por el terreno ondulante. 

Aquellos que cuenten con experiencia también tendrán la posibilidad de contar con caballos más sueltos y poder galopar y/o trotar en los momentos que los baqueanos lo consideren, según el tipo de terreno.

Hospedaje en las habitaciones de la Estancia. 

Cada uno debe llevar su equipaje personal en un bolso o mochila grande.

Comidas tipicas del lugar.
