Yeguada de la Cartuja Hierro del Bocado Stud Farm Tour

At 11 am, we'll meet at the Cartuja Hierro del Bocado Stud Farm, located 15 kilometres from the centre of Jerez de la Frontera. We'll explore how Carthusian horses are bred and understand the significance of this ancient lineage.

The tour begins with a walk around the facilities, including the stable yard and training areas. We will review the origins of the Carthusian horse, which is closely linked to the monks of the Carthusian Monastery of Santa María de la Defensión established in the 15th century.

We will learn about the physical characteristics of these Spanish horses, their breeding process, and get the opportunity to meet some of them.

Before concluding, we'll attend a horse show to see these horses interacting with their trainers, providing a fitting end to the tour.

The tour will conclude with farewells between 1 pm and 1:30 pm.
