Waterfall Horseback Ride & Venado Caves

Ride horseback across Ganadera La Nacha, a working cattle and dairy ranch run by the Solís family in Venado. Cross the river, climb green ridges with valley views, and stop at the ranch's private waterfalls before continuing on to the Venado Caves for an underground adventure. Your host, Don Julio, speaks Spanish only; Hazel handles all coordination for you. All levels of riders are welcome; no experience needed.
