Handout</div>El Kabayo has opened a new horseback riding facility in Arillo, Nasugbu last Friday, December 19, expanding its leisure offerings just in time for the holiday season.Located within Arillo Estate, an Ayala Land development along the Tagaytay–Nasugbu Highway, the Nasugbu site offers guided horseback rides designed for guests of all ages and riding levels. The experience is positioned as a nature-based activity, featuring gentle trails, cooler mountain air, and scenic views of the surrounding highlands.El Kabayo said the new location builds on the area’s long-standing tradition as a retreat for families and outdoor enthusiasts, introducing horseback riding as a shared activity in a managed and accessible setting.“We are excited to open our paddocks in Nasugbu and share a meaningful, nature-driven activity with guests this season,” said Gabby La O, owner of El Kabayo Nasugbu. “Our goal is to make horseback riding accessible, safe, and enjoyable for everyone, whether they are riding for the first time or returning to a familiar passion.”The Nasugbu facility will offer guided leisure rides led by trained staff, suitable for beginners and casual riders. More experienced riders may also bring their own horses and use the trails, with stabling support available upon prior coordination.El Kabayo said safety and horse welfare remain central to its operations. Helmets and riding equipment are provided, and all rides are guided or supervised by experienced personnel. The horses are trained to ensure a calm and secure riding experience.“Our horses are the heart of what we do,” La O added. “Guests can expect well trained, gentle horses and a team that values their welfare as much as the experience itself.”The facility will operate from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Tuesday through Sunday, with the last ride scheduled at 4:30 p.m. Rates start at P1,000 for a 15-minute guided ride.El Kabayo is located at Arillo Estate along the Tagaytay–Nasugbu Highway.
