In Spain, there are equestrian schools in almost every province. To start, it is best to look for federated centers (RFHE or regional federation) with certified instructors, well-cared-for horses (check their physical condition), and suitable riding arenas or tracks. Single introductory lessons usually cost €25-40 per hour, and 10-lesson bundles offer better rates.
