Hannah has enjoyed all the rides she visited, but her special favourites have to be the Sierra Nevada mountains in Spain and the Montana ranches. 'While I love all the safari rides too there is something about the remote beauty of the Montana mountains that takes your breath away. There are seemingly never ending trails to explore on excellent horses and riding western style, herding cattle and roping is really great fun' says Hannah.
