Rancho Xotolar
A horseback riding trip in San Miguel de Allende is a great way to have fun and learn. There are many easy trails that lead riders through the countryside and canyons. Half-day canyon rides can be arranged by Rancho Xotolar, which offer cantering and trotting. Another option is The Ranch at San Miguel, where kids can take an easy walk and learn about the local culture. Both ranches have gentle horses that aren’t too intimidating for young riders.

Hi, my name is Charlotte and I am the author of the Sandbox Playground. I believe that play is an essential part of a child’s development and that playgrounds and sandboxes are a great way to inspire kids’ imaginations.
I have been working with children for many years, and through my work I have seen the amazing things that they can achieve when they’re given the opportunity to play. I hope to continue inspiring kids all around the world with my writing.
