ABOUT AMPASCACHI

Equestrian Specialists and the Best Travel Companions

An experience that goes far beyond horseback riding

At Ampascachi, we like to say that we have an equestrian soul. Our love for horses transcends generations and has become the guide for everything we do.

In 1994, the Imberti family founded Haras Ampascachi. Since then, we have dedicated ourselves to breeding Peruvian Paso horses and sharing our knowledge so that everyone can discover this unique breed.

Throughout these years, we have found that horses are animals that hide many mysteries. In our daily work, we combine our personal experience with animal behavior science to train our horses. Always with respect and with all the care they deserve.

Thanks to our philosophy and way of working, we achieve specimens with stable temperaments who make wonderful travel companions.

Why Equestrian Tourism?

The more we learned about horses' qualities, the deeper impression they left on us. And the more intense our desire became to protect them.

We live in an era where horses are no longer needed as a workforce. Their future is uncertain.

At Ampascachi, we believe that equestrian tourism is the noblest way to ensure the survival and well-being of an animal that has been with us for centuries. That's why we took the step to design and organize equestrian routes in Argentina, our homeland.

In our journeys, horse and rider connect deeply. They delve into ancient cultures and enjoy true nature.

OUR PERUVIAN PASO HORSE

The best seat in the world

Everyone who has ridden a Peruvian Paso horse agrees: there is no breed in the world with such exceptional qualities.

Privileged Genetics

The Peruvian Paso horse is the result of 500 years of natural and functional selection. It descends from horses introduced during the Conquest. Its genetic heritage combines traits from Berber and Andalusian horses. From the Berber horse, it retains endurance and tendency towards ambling. The Andalusian breed is the origin of its proud gait and elevated movements. The Peruvian Paso horse has a good temperament, is dedicated and very noble.

Privileged Genetics

A Smooth and Rhythmic Gait

Horses have two distinct ways of walking before beginning to gallop: trotting or ambling. In trotting, forward movement is achieved through diagonal limb movement. Ambling is more comfortable than trotting for the rider, but the movement remains abrupt. The Peruvian Paso horse breaks this 2-beat amble by supporting one limb a fraction of a second before the other lateral limb. This is known as the four-beat paso llano.
