Ride and Escape presents the Santa Bárbara Equestrian Centre as a destination for horse-riding holidays in Constância, a historic village set between the Tejo and Zêzere rivers. Founded in 1996 by Antonio Camacho Soares and Joaquim Batuca, the centre welcomes riders seeking both a relaxing break and the chance to improve their riding skills. Its facilities include an indoor arena, two outdoor arenas and a cross-country course.

Guests can ride Lusitano horses along trails through eucalyptus and pine trees, olive groves and cereal fields, with views of the rivers and surrounding mountains. The rides are designed to explore varied scenery at a pace intended to help riders feel safe and relaxed. A rural, family-run hotel is located 80 metres from the equestrian centre. The website also provides information about accommodation, meals, holidays, special offers, prices and booking policies, helping visitors plan their stay. Constância is about an hour from Lisbon and two hours from Porto, making the centre accessible for travellers exploring Portugal.
