A horseback adventure on a trail of open savannah that leads to remote Amerindian villages and the Guyana jungle is an ideal extreme experience.
On horseback, you would race across stunning savannah landscapes; cross crystal clear creeks, wading under low- hanging jungle vines and through eight-foot-tall savannah grass.
For the dedicated horseback adventurer, there is nothing better than many days of long trail rides, observing breathtaking sceneries.
The North Rupununi, where the jungle meets mountains and savannah meets wetlands, offers such an amazing trek. Adventurers can camp out at night, ride through remote Amerindian communities, and taste true horseback adventure as it has been for hundreds of years.
A horseback expedition in Guyana’s remote locations can take you exploring the legendary El Dorado. Travel from the Kanuku Mountains across amazing landscapes to reach your destination close to the Pakaraima Mountain range, a set of mountains stretching hundreds of miles and encompassing the famous tepuis, or flat- top mountains that inspired the story of “The Lost World.”
Riding the open ground, you will see king vultures, savannah hawks and giant jabiru storks alongside massive termite mounds and their nemesis, the giant anteater. This trip gives you the chance to watch real working ranches, visit traditional local communities, and appreciate the cool evening savannah breeze from the sanctuary of your lazy hammock slung from the sandpaper tree.
An adventure of such character gives you the chance to see Guyana’s pristine beauty and the rainforest up close, and registers an experience that will forever be etched on your mind.
