Our fifth and sixth nights were spent at the Finca Valbono, just outside Aracena. As you might have noticed on the handy-dandy Map of Bike Trip, Aracena is inside the Parque Natural de la Sierra de Aracena. Just what makes it a natural park, however, is not exactly clear. The land is dotted with farms and ranches just like everywhere else.

 

CMG trades in the two wheeled-iron-steed for the real thing.

Riding the Finca. On either side of the stone walls are a bunch of bulls.

The bulls and the horses don't get along, so the bulls sometimes charge the wall when you ride by. It's extreme riding.

These horses came galloping across the pasture to say hi to their pals (our mounts). They trotted along side us as long as the fence permitted them.
