Help take care of our farm and horses in Aquitania

Das Erlebnis

Hi! My name is Diego and I own a farm in Aquitania, Boyacá (Colombia). In this beautiful environment I realise tours on horseback with tourists through the Páramo hills, with a stunning view of the Tota Lake. I own about 15 horses, which need care, attention and training. Some of them were rescued from maltreatment. In the small village of Toquilla (Aquitania) we are all neighbours and the community will welcome you with open arms.
