This unique route almost 100 km long has accommodation facilities and food services for horses and riders, specialised horse-riding centres, equestrian guides service, riding courses and workshops, trekking horses for hire and other complementary services.

Along the equestrian route, the horse-riding centres in Llíria organise national and international ‘Raids’ every year. This is a competitive horse-riding discipline in which the horse’s speed, ability, and physical and psychological stamina is put to the test given that it must run long distances in one day over the most varied terrains and against the clock. The jockey must have the ability to save the horse’s strength and keep up a steady pace during the test. At the end of a race, the horse’s pulse is taken and if it isn’t within the limits allowed, the jockey is eliminated.
