The Abrantes Equestrian Centre is located in the Rossio ao Sul do Tejo area. This area is situated on the south bank of the Tagus River, offering a broader, flatter environment that contrasts with the elevated position of Abrantes' historic centre. Its location allows for proximity to the riverside nature and offers views of the surroundings, including, in some spots, the landscape of the city on the hill and its castle.
Being at an equestrian centre typically provides an atmosphere of tranquility and contact with nature. This location in Rossio ao Sul do Tejo benefits from the characteristic open spaces of the area, creating an environment conducive to relaxation and observation. It is a refuge from the daily hustle and bustle, where one can appreciate the quietude of the countryside and the presence of animals.
At the heart of the Equestrian Centre are, naturally, the horses. The mere presence of these animals and the activities associated with them creates a focal point of interest for many visitors. It is an opportunity to get closer to the equestrian universe, observe the relationship between riders and horses, and feel the energy of a space dedicated to this practice.
The visual landscape of the centre is shaped by the infrastructures necessary for equestrian activity. It is common to find areas dedicated to practice, such as riding arenas, and facilities where horses are cared for, such as stables. These elements construct a unique scenery that reflects the purpose of the location and the life dedicated to horses, integrating into the natural surroundings of the area.
