Two farms designed for natural herd living
A 33-hectare personalized setting and a 560-hectare extensive herd integration model in Andalusia.
An ecosystem designed for the horse
The management of equestrian estates in Andalusia requires a profound
understanding of the Mediterranean dehesa and the delicate balance of
its biodiversity.
Green Horse Ranch is situated across a territory that is as diverse as it
is vast, providing a unique ecological setting for the horse. This landscape
is characterised by its undulating topography, ancient oak forests, and
nutrient-dense pastures. Our land is not merely an area for grazing; it
is a complex, living system that we manage with a focus on long-term sustainability
and equine health. The geographical orientation of the estates ensures optimal
sun exposure and natural protection from the elements, creating a series
of micro-environments that vary with the seasons.
First hectares: Safety and Adaptation
Our 33 hectare private equestrian land serves as a specialised
sector designed for focused management and individual adaptation.
This estate is technically structured to provide a bridge between
traditional stabling and the total freedom of the larger
landscape. Topographically, it features gentle slopes and
high-quality pastureland, allowing for close supervision while
still offering a sense of openness.
The infrastructure here is of the highest standard, with secure perimeter
fencing and multiple access points for technical staff. Within these
33 hectares, we can manage stocking densities with extreme precision,
ensuring that each horse receives the natural resources and individual
attention it needs.
The horizon without limits
Natural Resources
Water and Springs
The estates are equipped with a strategic network of water points, including natural springs, seasonal ponds, and high-tech automated troughs that ensure constant hydration even in the height of the Andalusian summer.
Native Flora
Natural pastureland and dense canopies of cork and holm oak provide essential nutritional resources and thermal regulation, offering a living shelter that is superior to any man-made structure.
La Dehesa Farm: Life in freedom
The expansive 560 hectare horse estate represents the pinnacle of
extensive equine management. This is a territory of truly
exceptional scale, where the horse experiences the reality of a
life without boundaries. The diverse topography—comprising ridges,
valleys, and woodland—encourages a natural migratory pattern
within the herds.
This scale is vital for preventing overgrazing and for ensuring that
the land remains regenerative. The horses traverse varied terrain that
challenges and maintains their physical integrity, living in a space
that replicates the environmental complexity of their wild ancestors.
Coexistence with native fauna
The sheer size of this estate ensures that social groups can establish
their own territories without conflict. Our management of the pasture
is based on a rotational system that allows the land to rest and the
native flora to regenerate, avoiding soil compaction and promoting
biodiversity.
This territorial advantage is what allows for the resolution of many chronic
health issues associated with confinement, allowing the horse to remain
the primary occupant of a landscape shaped by centuries of silence.
Minimal intervention facilities
Extensive land management involves high-specification fencing and a
discreet network of internal tracks for professional oversight.
Despite the vastness, we maintain strategic handling areas integrated into
the landscape, where veterinary or farrier work can be performed in a secure
and calm environment. This balance of vast, open territory and high-level
infrastructure ensure that the freedom we offer is backed by the security
of professional management.
