**Horses** are among the most graceful, mesmerising animals on Earth. **Elegant, dignified**, even ‘sniffy’, they have been by men’s side since the dawn of time. Aware of their grandeur, we take respect and care for them. Málaga and Costa del Sol have their own race, **Spanish thoroughbred horses**, characterised by poise, strength and a harmonious body. They are the stars in horse riding activity on the Costa del Sol – a sport that is also an art and is shaped into hundreds of different forms in Málaga Province.

## Want to learn to ride a horse?

In Costa del Sol, you can. There are many **horse riding schools** where you can become familiar with these noble animals. Horse riding needs **practice and effort**, but when you are good at it, it delivers special, gratifying sensations. The experienced instructors in these schools will help you hold your horses.

If you are not a beginner, you can improve your horse riding skills on the Costa del Sol too. For instance, you can try your hand at dressage, a very elegant discipline that has made it into the Olympics. Most of the horse riding schools have long and prestigious histories. In fact, the **oldest equestrian school in Spain** is to be found here.

## Equestrian shows

Spanish thoroughbred horses can be seen at their most beautiful in the **equestrian shows** offered in Málaga. Their elegance and nobility are key to spark the magic. **Music, rhythm, discipline…** Powerful performances targeted both at horse lovers and at the general public.

There are lots of things to do with horses. You can visit farmhouses where Spanish thoroughbred horses are bred and spoilt, getting them ready for competition. Or you can go on a **horse riding tour** and discover some of the most special places in hinterland Málaga, evoking our **Andalusian** ancestors and their **romantic** means of transport.

Nothing is better than the back of a horse to take you to Málaga’s most charming towns and villages. Come to Costa del Sol and discover the **fascinating world of horses**.
