QPA Horse Riding & Lessons

QPA Horse Riding & Lessons operates from Quinta Paraíso Alto in the countryside near Bensafrim, just outside Lagos, offering small-group countryside rides for all levels alongside riding lessons, pony rides for children and livery. The centre's own site shows a 4.8 out of 5 rating from more than 200 Google and Tripadvisor reviews, and every ride includes ABRS-certified helmets, full insurance and bilingual English and Portuguese guides. Countryside rides run from a 1 hour ride (EUR 40 per person) through a 2 hour ride (EUR 70 per person) up to the flagship Restaurant Ride, roughly 3 hours of riding through the countryside to a local restaurant for lunch and back (EUR 150 per person). Riding lessons, both flatwork and jumping, start from EUR 30 per person for all levels from first-timers to competition riders, and pony rides for younger children start from EUR 20. QPA also offers full and DIY livery with professional training, priced on request. Bookings and enquiries are handled by phone, WhatsApp or email, and the centre is listed as an approved riding centre on its own site.
