Horse trekking in Chile

Prime seasons

By far the unrivaled seasons for horse trekking in Chile are spring and fall. Weather conditions remain stable, the light of day and moderate temperatures linger, allowing for early morning or late afternoon riding without the inconvenience of bugs or other insects.

The spring-fall rule, i.e. March/April and November, may only be applied to central Chile (between La Serena and Chillán). Chile has a variety of climates due to its lengthy extension; the North is desert land, ideal trekking ground for the winter months, while the South becomes a horse trekking paradise between December and March, the summer months. Although, most ofthe year remains moderate, the rainy season makes expeditionsin the South muddy and some areas impenetrable.
