Creation of horse boarding facility in the Maule Valley, central Chile

Infos

• 

  Description

  We have a small family run farm in the Maule Valley, central Chile. 300km south of Santiago. We are turning part of the farm into an equestrian facility and we need help with building stables, making fences, clearing paths in our small forest for trail riding, painting, making riding arenas and maybe some light work in one of our three greenhouses.
  
  There are lots of interesting places to explore in this area: Talca, a big city with everything you'll need (cinemas, bars, restaurants, museums, football stadium, historic buildings etc.), the Andes mountains, the coastal mountains, the Pacific ocean, Maule River etc. The Maule Valley is the home of the Huaso, the Chilean cowboy, and you'll find local horse races and rodeos almost every week in the high season. You can use our bicycles and try to find the Querquel Lagoon in the coastal mountains, a couple of hours away.
