  • PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. BY SIGNING THIS DOCUMENT YOU GRANT THE BROADEST LEGAL RELEASE AND SETTLEMENT FOR THE ACCEPTED RISKS.
  • 1. Critical Recognition of Risks:

  • The participant acknowledges that horseback riding is an adventure activity with inherent risks. Horses are living, powerful, and unpredictable animals that may react suddenly (kicking, biting, bucking, tripping, running, or bolting) to external stimuli, noises, vehicles, or the presence of wildlife. Furthermore, all stages related to the route and the natural environment present specific risks such as soft sand, uneven terrain, cliffs, rocks, branches, as well as weather or ocean variations that can cause falls, severe bodily injury, disability, or death. The foregoing includes, but is not limited to: transportation to the site, staging/waiting areas, the act of interacting with, petting, feeding, approaching, mounting, dis mounting, and the time spent trail riding on the beach of Ensenada, Baja California (Federal Maritime Terrestrial Zone).
  • 2. Release of Liability and Settlement:

  • The participant fully releases from any and all civil, criminal, administrative, or any other liability DESERT TRAILS, and/or the contracting CRUISE LINES, as well as their respective partners, directors, employees, guides, contractors, suppliers, and owners of the animals or lands used. The undersigning party grants the broadest release and settlement permitted by law and covenants not to file or participate in any legal action, complaint, or claim against them for injuries, damages, or losses arising from the inherent risks accepted in this document.
  • 3. Health and Safety Restrictions:
