EL Sumampong Farm: Horseback Riding




   My sister's family just got home from the States for a short vacation. So we went horseback riding at El Sumampong Farm. It's been over a year since the last time I've been there. We wanted to try something different this time so we took the trail ride. Unfortunately, it wasn't as challenging as the one we had in Tagaytay. Nevertheless, we've learned how to let the horse gallop and that  made it so much fun! You have to lean forward and hold the horse's mane to keep you balanced. My butt hurts 'til now though, maybe I wasn't sitting properly when the horse galloped faster.  I almost fell off too when it gone a bit out of control.  Had to shout "HO" and pull the rope that was tied around its neck.  I got scared somehow so I let the horserider man it so it won't go wild again and he pulled the horse back to the main ranch. 

    That was amazing! Everyone had a great time including my nephew, Sean. If I only had a horse, I would love to learn more about horseback riding.                                                                                                           


NEW RATES:

1hour trail ride- P400
30 mins trail ride- P200
15 mins trail ride- P50

Horseback Riding: BOHOL DAY TOUR



The Municipality of Loboc in Bohol is just a small town but definitely famous not only because of the remarkable  Loboc Children's Choir but also because of the wonderful attractions: The Loboc River Cruise, Hanging bridge and the latest El Sumampong Farm. Since we wanted new route and new places aside from the usual itinerary of the Bohol day tour, we included the El Sumampong Farm as one of the places to go.








They offer horseback riding for only P20/pax per round at the track and a range from P150 to P200/pax for an hour of trail ride which lets you travel towards the mountain tops and the cave as well. 


Unfortunately, we only tried the former due to limited time. Nevertheless, it was a good experience especially to those who are still beginners. The trainers said the horses know whether the rider is still a beginner or already a pro. That's cool. Never knew they could determine that until now. Although this isn't my first time horse back riding, I still  consider myself a beginner. There are guides who will teach you the basics and assist you all through out the ride. 


I am hoping that their trial ride is more adventurous than our horseback ride at Taal Volcano. I'll be back one of these days. =)
