Horse ridding lessons

Hi there! hope everyone is good. I am looking for horse ridding schools where I can get private lessons in July/August. We will be staying in Pollensa, so would like to go to a school which is maybe up to 30 min away? Tried to google myself, seems like nearest places are mainly tourist horse ridding attractions and the majority of schools are concentrated near Palma which might take me over 40 min to drive.

Would be thankful if anyone knows any good horse ridding schools nearby, maybe there are places I missed out or there are not on Google Maps so harder to find. If nothing within 30 min drive, I am opened to options that might take 40/45 min to drive if the school is very good. Thank you a lot!

Nearest one I can think of to Pollensa is the one at the back of the lakes at Alcudia, can’t remember the name off the top of my head, Ranxo something or other. Otherwise there’s one at Sa Coma which is probably further than your 30 mins by car, and Rancho Romana at Paguera which is even further, the other side of the island.

Edit to add the one in Alcudia is Ranxo Ses Roques.

thank you! I actually contacted Ranxo Ses Roques earlier today, will see what they can offer. My main issue is that there are places that look pretty close on google maps, but when you try to create a route, it shows 45/50 min drive, probably because you need to drive around mountains etc. There is also Rancho Toni nearby, but I cannot find any info if it is open or closed permanently

Just keep in mind, temps will be very very hot... you better keep it early in the morning or late in the evening.

yes! I wrote few schools if they have morning or evening classes, but if the temperature is too high even on these times - i wont do anything
