- Duración: 1 h 30
- Temporada: All year, by reservation
- Para quién: Families and anyone who has never ridden

An hour and a half on horseback crossing the river, among woods and fields with Morella in view, or a cart ride · by reservation all year.

Morella looks different from below, from the Bergantes valley, on horseback. Distrau-te, the activities brand of Cases Rural Morella, brings out its horses near the Fàbrica Giner, about 4 km from the wall, for relaxed rides designed for people who have never ridden.
On horseback: an hour and a half with the river in between
The ride starts with a practical explanation: how to approach the horse, how to get on and how to guide it. Then it heads out into the countryside. According to Morella's tourist office, the route crosses the river and passes through woods and farmland with the walled city in view. It lasts about an hour and a half and a maximum of ten people go on each outing. It is a walking-pace ride, not a riding lesson.
By cart, for those who do not want to ride
If the group includes very small children or someone who would rather not get on a horse, the cart ride is the alternative. First you see how the horse is harnessed to the cart, with an explanation of each piece, and then you travel through a natural area around the Fàbrica Giner looking at the flora and fauna. It lasts 60 to 90 minutes and takes up to eight adults or ten children.
The same company has a large room of traditional hand-made wooden games, with games of skill and wit, which it uses for families, schools and birthdays.
Booking and paying
Everything works by prior reservation, all year: on 677 44 82 50 or at reservas@ruralmorella.com. Neither the website nor the tourist office publishes prices or a minimum age, so ask both when you book, along with the exact place where you meet. Payment is in cash or by Bizum.
To complete the morning
In the same valley are the Saltapins adventure park, at the Fàbrica Giner, and the start of the Els Ports mountain-bike routes. Back in Morella, climb to the castle, which opens every day from 11:00, and eat on the arcaded street.
