The estate is a short distance from Ilha do Pessegueiro beach, offering views of the sea and the surrounding hills, in an environment dominated by vast green areas.

Origin and Purpose

With a history spanning more than two decades, Herdade do Pessegueiro initially began as a simple farm. However, over time, it transformed into a project dedicated to equestrian tourism, driven by a deep passion for horses. This journey has allowed for the creation of a space where the connection with these animals is the central element, sharing this love with visitors seeking a unique and relaxing experience amidst nature.

Equestrian Experiences in Nature

The venue offers various possibilities for those wishing to explore the region on horseback, regardless of their prior experience. The routes adapt to the seasons, allowing visitors to enjoy Ilha do Pessegueiro beach in warmer months, or to follow the coastline, with the beach in the distance, and reach the trails of the Rota Vicentina during winter. For those who have never ridden, equestrian baptism experiences are available, and even the youngest can have their first contact with horses guided by specialized instructors.

Facilities Dedicated to Equestrianism

Herdade do Pessegueiro's dedication to the equine world is reflected in its infrastructure. The venue features three distinct riding arenas, designed for different purposes: one for lunging, and two others with dimensions of 20x60 meters and 50x30 meters, respectively. Additionally, there are spacious grazing paddocks, ensuring the horses' well-being, highlighting the estate's commitment to quality and animal care.
